Video Summary
Hypopituitarism refers to the underproduction of any of the hormones released by the pituitary gland. If all of the pituitary hormones are underproduced, it's called panhypopituitarism. Hypopituitarism can be caused by tumors, pituitary hemorrhage or infarction, or accidental damage during radiation or surgery. Symptoms vary greatly depending on which hormones are impacted. Common symptoms include fatigue, weight gain, depression, low blood pressure, and problems with sexual function.
