Sharmyn's in-depth understanding of pituitary disorders comes not only from her own battle against Cushing's disease, but from personal relationships with hundreds of patient worldwide.

Clinical and Mental Health Challenges to their Diagnosis and Treatment

This webinar lays out a broad overview of common pituitary disorders, including but not limited to the clinical presentation and diagnosis of functioning and non-functioning pituitary tumors, their treatment and immediate post-operative complications. It can take many patients years to obtain a proper diagnosis. Once diagnosed and properly treated, patients are often faced with physical and mental changes that may be lifelong. Therefore, the aspects of long-term medical management and hormone replacement therapies will be discussed. The medical and mental health aspects specific to these disorders will be also be discussed with plenty of opportunity for questions and input.
