Pituitary microadenoma is a benign tumor, most common in the saddle area, generally less than 10mm in diameter, with an incidence rate of 1/100,000. Some patients may experience headache, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, and other symptoms. Some patients may have headaches, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, etc. The final clarification is often obtained through an enhanced MRI.
In terms of treatment, most pituitary microadenomas require only medication, such as bromocriptine, which stimulates dopamine receptors in pituitary cells to reduce the effect of prolactin in the blood. Bromocriptine can reduce the size of the adenoma, restore menstruation and ovulation and conception, and suppress breast milk overflow. However, bromocriptine cannot cure the adenoma at all, and it can continue to increase in size after stopping the medication, and the symptoms can return.
Therefore, if a woman has lactation, she needs to go to a breast specialist in time to identify the cause and treat it.
