Okay, I’m checking in here for the first time because, honestly, I’m spiraling a bit. I need to know if anyone else has dealt with a pituitary cyst. Right now, they’ve found a 1cm cyst on my pituitary gland, but the doctors... I don't know, they’re just being so casual about it? They say we should just monitor it and come back for another MRI in six months. I don't know if I can just sit around and wait like that. I'm freaking out. PLEASE HELP.

Hi there—I’m actually dealing with something pretty similar! I have a 1cm cyst on my pineal gland (that's the gland right next to the pituitary). Just like in your case, my doctors told me the move is to just monitor it. I’ve been doing an annual MRI for four years now, and thank God, nothing has changed or grown. I’m not sure what kind of symptoms you’re running into, but for me, it’s constant headaches and some... let's just say "irregularities" regarding my cycle. What kind of symptoms are you having? To be honest, after four years of bouncing between different specialists, I still feel like I haven't grasped the full picture—so if you manage to figure anything out, please, please let me know!🙂waiting for a reply!!!

I’ve been diagnosed with a clear cyst on my pituitary gland's intermediate lobe, along with an enlarged pineal gland. To make matters more complicated, my thyroid is failing, and I’m dealing with hyperplastic ovaries. Has anyone here actually dealt with pituitary cysts before? Are there any specific symptoms I should be watching out for—anything unusual?
