[quote=Anonymous]PP with 16-year-old son diagnosed with hypo-pituitarism. All of his pituitary hormones were present, but on the low side. His bone age was consistently 18 months to 2 years behind throughout his childhood/adolescense. He went to the hospital for a growth hormone stimulation test around age 10, and he took growth hormone injections for about 6 years. He has been taking and will continue taking supplemental thyroid pills. His prolactin levels are practically non-existent, but that does not matter for boys/men. His cortisol is a bit low, but it responded well to the cortisol stimulation test.[/quote]
