Description
The presence of multiple endocrinopathies in pregnancy is a rare occurance. It throws a
significant challenge- beginning from conception, through the antenatum, during parturition and
beyond. An intervening infection or an unexpected complication of the existing endocrinopathies
further adds threats to the delicate situation.
Prompt recognition, early initiation of therapy, close monitoring and follow-up with
multidisciplinary care are indispensable in order to achieve a successful outcome.
We present the case of a patient with pituitary adenoma, adrenal insufficiency, and
hypothyroidism , of how she sailed through the diagnosis and management and walked home
with a healthy baby.
