VALDES CARRILLO, Ramón; FERNANDEZ ALECH, Rogelio; VALLADARES HERNANDEZ, Martha e RODRIGUEZ VASQUEZ, Belkis. Pituitary conditions during pregnancy: A five-year follow up. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2004, vol.8, n.2, pp. 47-55. ISSN 1561-3194.
Endocrinopathics during pregnancy are entities with proper characteristics. Hypophyseal dysfunction is not frequent but not less important. Thirty pregnant suffering from hypophyseal disorders were studied, all them attended to Provincial Endocrinology and Pregnancy Consultations. The average age was 19.3 ± 6.1 years, prevailing the Caucasian race. TSH, 1H, FSH and Prl as well as FO and campimetry were determined quarterly. Results obtained showed that microadenoma of the hypophysis prevailed in 16 cases followed by empty primary or secondary sella (turcica) syndrome (6 cases), being less frequent craniopharingeoma, macroadenoma (operated on) and diabetes insipidus, in hormones there was a marked increase of prolactine in all quarterlies of pregnancy, FSH and 1H had normal standards but low, THS showed no variations. Only 3 patients suffering from microadenoma needed the administration of Parlodel during pregnancy. Concluding that no tumour growth was found in patients suffering from microadenoma, malformation was not reported in women taking Bromocriptine during pregnancy. Some women presented hypogalactia after pregnancy.
