A member asked:

I'm just wondering, if you were to control the pituitary gland in females, what would happen?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

What do you mean?: Your question makes no sense. The pituitary gland is the "master" gland, controlling other hormone systems in your body. If it is not working correctly there are various treatments depending on what hormone is affected.
