A member asked:
I have hypothyroidism and my pituitary glands hurt all the time. yesterday=bad all day. can't even touch the back of my head now. what is wrong?

Doubt pituitary: You have headaches. Hopefully your hypothyroidism is being adequately treated. Why do you think this is from your pituitary? A pituitary headache is relatively unusual, and usually is associated with a relatively large tumor. See your doctor about the cause of your headaches.
