Panhypopituitarism
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Panhypopituitarism is a disorder in which the pituitary gland does not produce enough hormones, which affects several glands in the body that depend on its signals. Because it involves multiple hormones, its effects can be quite varied.
Common symptoms: marked fatigue, intolerance to cold, weight changes, low blood pressure, menstrual disturbances, and decreased sex drive.
When should you see a doctor? The combination of persistent fatigue with several of these symptoms deserves a hormonal evaluation.
Which specialist treats it? The endocrinologist, and the pediatric endocrinologist in children, studies the function of the pituitary gland; the internist and the general practitioner can guide the first visit. If you identify with these signs, it is best to discuss it with one of them.
