Overview
Hypopituitarism has a big variety of risk factors that increase the possibility of acquiring the disease. These risk factors incluide pituitary tumor, brain injury, head trauma, genetic defects, and brain surgery.
Risk Factors
More common risk factors
Common risk factors of hypopituitarism include the following: [1]
- Pituitary tumor or space occupying lesion
- Pituitary apoplexy
- Severe loss of blood: Sheehan syndrome, or postpartum hypopituitarism
- Pituitary surgery such as hypophysectomy
- Cranial radiation
- Genetic defects
- Hypothalamic disease
- Immunosuppression such as HIV and high dose glucocorticoid intake [2][3]
- Inflammatory processes such as
- Pituitary infarction
- Infiltrative disorders such as
- Non-compliance with hormone replacemrnt therapy
Less common risk factors
Less common risk factors include:
- Infiltrative disorders such as
- Traumatic brain injury causing skull fractures
