Pituitary & Adrenal Gland Disorders

At Empire Endocrinology, we specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions of the pituitary and adrenal glands—two small but powerful organs that control many of the body’s most important hormones. When these glands are not functioning properly, the effects can impact energy, weight, mood, blood pressure, and overall health.

Pituitary Disorders We Treat

Pituitary tumors (adenomas) – benign growths that can affect hormone production

Cushing’s disease – caused by excess cortisol from the pituitary

Prolactinomas – tumors that produce too much prolactin, often affecting fertility

Growth hormone imbalances – leading to acromegaly or growth hormone deficiency

Hypopituitarism – reduced hormone production affecting multiple body systems

Adrenal Disorders We Treat

Adrenal insufficiency (Addison’s disease) – low cortisol levels causing fatigue, weakness, and low blood pressure

Cushing’s syndrome – high cortisol levels leading to weight gain, high blood pressure, and diabetes risk

Pheochromocytoma – rare adrenal tumors causing sudden spikes in blood pressure

Hyperaldosteronism – excess aldosterone, often linked to resistant hypertension

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) – inherited disorder affecting adrenal hormone production
