Abstract:
Clinicians face many challenges regarding conception and pregnancy management for women with panhypopituitarism. Fertility in women with panhypopituitarism is often reduced, and they are at risk of obstetric complications. The authors describe the case of a woman with congenital panhypopituitarism who had a successful pregnancy after ovulation induction and optimization of hormonal replacement therapy. This case report emphasizes the importance of careful adjustment of hormonal replacement therapy in managing pregnant women with panhypopituitarism.
