Early symptoms of pituitary tumors in women

Nowadays, the frequency of pituitary tumors is getting higher and higher. In the past, men were more likely to get tumors than women. But now, with the continuous development of society, the probability of women getting pituitary tumors is also gradually increasing. Therefore, women should pay more attention in many cases. If there is a family history of pituitary tumors, they must see a doctor regularly for check-ups and have some understanding of this disease. Then, they should pay more attention to the symptoms in the early stages of this disease.

1. Most pituitary gland-related diseases are often associated with headaches. The main cause of headaches is the continuous increase in intracranial pressure, which causes severe headaches. Most headaches occur in the morning. They may not be very painful before going to bed, but there will be bursts of pain during sleep.

2. If a woman has symptoms such as infertility, erectile dysfunction, dizziness, headache, etc. with unclear causes, she must see a doctor for examination in time. Some early pituitary tumors are difficult to detect. Many women believe that infertility is caused by gynecological diseases and ignore brain examinations, which is not right.

3. Under normal physical conditions, our body's venous blood flows from the eyes to the brain. If the pituitary gland is inactive, the increased intracranial pressure may make it difficult for venous blood to flow smoothly to the brain. Therefore, in this case, it may immediately cause vision loss, and what is heard will gradually become blurred. In severe cases, the patient may become blind.

4. When a pituitary tumor occurs, the intracranial pressure continues to increase, which will cause severe stimulation to the respiratory nerve center of the human body, so some patients may experience vomiting. This condition may occur after a headache, so the patient himself should pay attention to it.

The above symptoms are relatively common symptoms of pituitary tumors. In addition to these symptoms, it may be necessary to examine according to different physical conditions. What some girls need to pay attention to is that some symptoms of pituitary tumors will directly affect girls' fertility, so they need to be more preventive and pay more attention.
