New Hypopituitarism Data Have Been Reported by Investigators at Stanford University (Fertility Issues In Hypopituitarism)

2024 JAN 12 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Health & Medicine Daily -- Fresh data on Pituitary Gland Diseases and Conditions

Review Description

Women with hypopituitarism have lower fertility rates and worse pregnancy outcomes than women with normal pituitary function. These disparities exist despite the use of assisted reproductive technologies and hormone replacement. In women with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, administration of exogenous gonadotropins can be used to successfully induce ovulation. Growth hormone replacement in the setting of growth hormone deficiency has been suggested to potentiate reproductive function, but its routine use in hypopituitary women remains unclear and warrants further study. In this review, we will discuss the clinical approach to fertility in a woman with hypopituitarism.
