Hypopituitarism

Hypopituitarism, a partial or complete deficiency of one or more anterior pituitary hormones, is a nebulous topic. No two patients are alike, and the caveats abound. Fortunately, we can treat patients with hormones in this era to maintain some semblance of normality. Truthfully, we are unable to completely restore function to normal due to the wonderful intricacies of pituitary and target gland functions that simply cannot be matched by a combination of drugs. In this book, Dr. Lewis Blevins discusses his approach to evaluation and management to optimize treatment and well-being in patients with hypopituitarism.
