Pituitary problems?

by Karly122, Mar 06, 2008 07:57PM
Anyone having problems with their pituitary gland?  Can you share your story about how it was diagnosed, which treatment you took, and which hormones it affected?   It is suspected that something's wrong with mine and I'll be having some tests for my adrenals glands soon.  Anything or everything you can share will be greatly appreciated.

I had an MRI done on my pituitary gland to see if it was working right. I keep having frequent urination so they thought maybe my Ant-Diuretic Hormone which the gland makes to tell your kidneys to hold onto fluids. All came back okay. The pituitary gland has so  many functions.

That is the only story i have to share with that gland. Sorry, not much help.
