Should people with hypopituitarism be active?
Ask
Hello doctor. I had surgery for pituitary tumor half a year ago. Now that I have hypopituitarism, should I go to the gym or exercise? Thank you doctor.

Hello. In case you have hypopituitarism, it is necessary to receive adequate hormone replacement therapy before strenuous exercise to avoid falling into acute stress. If you have been well treated with hormone replacement therapy, you can exercise or exercise but need to be monitored during exercise. When there are signs of fatigue, nausea, dizziness, you must stop exercising immediately and add water and electricity. Full solution please.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards.
