Abstract:

Hypopituitarism is caused by a complete or partial deficiency of the pituitary hormone. Women with hypopituitarism are usually impaired fertility and almost unable to conceive naturally. This paper retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of a patient with hypopituitarism who was treated by assisted reproductive technology and successfully delivered twin pregnancy, in order to strengthen the understanding of pregnancy and peripartum management in hypopituitarism patients, and to provide reference for clinical work. With proper hormone supplementation and careful multidisciplinary management before and during pregnany and perinatal period, women with hypopituitarism can deliver healthy babies.

Key words: Hypopituitarism, Reproductive techniques,assisted, Pregnancy,twin, Parturition, Multidisciplinary consultation
