Health

However, these tumors rarely cause symptoms or produce excessive GH or other pituitary hormones. (references)

Pituitary tumors may also impair production of one or more pituitary hormones, causing reduced pituitary function (hypopituitarism). (references)

In addition to assessing the size of the pituitary tumor, doctors also look for damage to surrounding tissues, and perform tests to assess whether production of other pituitary hormones is normal. (references)
