At Imperial College London - Diabetes & Endocrine Centre, we offer specialised assessment and treatment for a wide range of pituitary conditions, with a strong focus on early detection and long-term management. Our care is particularly important in the UAE, where hormonal imbalances can go undiagnosed due to lack of awareness or delayed referrals.
Common Pituitary Conditions We Test and Treat for
Our Endocrinologists are experienced in diagnosing and managing a wide spectrum of pituitary gland disorders, including:
- Pituitary adenomas (non-cancerous tumours)
- Prolactinoma (high prolactin levels)
- Acromegaly (excess growth hormone)
- Cushing’s disease (high cortisol levels)
- Growth hormone deficiency
- Hypopituitarism (underactive pituitary gland)
- Diabetes insipidus
- Post-surgical pituitary hormone replacement
- Delayed or precocious puberty
When to Seek Evaluation
Because pituitary disorders can affect many parts of the body, symptoms may be subtle or misattributed to other causes. You should consult a specialist if you experience:
- Unexplained fatigue or weight gain/loss
- Irregular/absent periods or unexplained fertility challenges
- Decreased libido or erectile dysfunction
- Persistent unexplained headaches or visual changes
- Breast discharge (in men or women not breastfeeding)
- Growth issues in children or excessive height, significant change in facial features in adults
- Delayed or late puberty
- Children with midline facial defects or other relevant congenital anomalies.
How We Can Help
Our centre offers advanced diagnostic testing - including hormonal blood panels, salient dynamic pituitary hormone testing - to pinpoint the exact cause of your symptoms.
Our treatment plans may include medical therapies to rebalance hormone levels, hormone replacement for deficiencies, and surgical referrals for pituitary tumours. Post-surgical care is also available, including long-term hormone monitoring and support.
We also address concerns such as growth hormone therapy in children and adults, stress hormone imbalance, and complex cases like combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD).
