New Message on Pituitary Chat HGH--ANd Recurring tumor Reply   Reply to Sender   Recommend Message 9 in Discussion From: MinnieChat The current thinking is that GH does not affect the growth of pituitary tumors. I believe this is discussed on several webcasts:   Category Growth Hormone Deficiency Description The Magic Foundation's 2003 Webcast Series on Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency Author Website URL http://www.magicfoundation.org/events/default.htm   Category Growth Hormone Deficiency Description The AACE Presentation of Growth Hormone Deficiency and it Long Term Effects Author Dr. Bonert, Dr. Clemmons, Dr. Saenger, Dr. Cook Website URL AACE GH Deficiency Webcast   Category Growth Hormone Deficiency Description Growth Hormone Deficiency Webcast Author From the Hormone Foundation Website URL GH Deficiency Webcast   Category Growth Hormone Replacement Description American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists Medical Guidelines for Clinical Practicefor Growth Hormone Use in Adults and Children - 2003 Update Author Website URL http://www.aace.com/clin/guidelines/hgh.pdf I think too there has been a recent paper published that examines if pituitary tumors regrow when on GH therapy. I can look for it if you like.   Old school - no GH New school, the health benefits are pretty remarkable.   I think it is BS that the other endo in town won't take you because you are someone elses patient. Check out the AACE, find a pituitary endo in your area, make your own appt, and keep your mouth shut re: who has been caring for you in the past (lordy, I've about had enough of hearing about ruffled chicken feathers from M.D.'s) lol.   God Speed!
