Hi jenna1, I don't have pituitary probs, but did have thyroid issues. Have since had it removed, and lupus was the cause of it being enlarged with multi-nodular growths. They are all connected, pituitary, thyroid, and parathyroid, glands. Lupus could be the culprit. Your endocrinologist will tell you that, these glands are seriously, misunderstood, for their vital role in regulating our bodies. Good luck with your next scan....
