Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Huang Shichang
Pituitary tumor patients should maintain a balance between work and rest, follow regular daily routines, and avoid ionizing radiation. Like other central nervous system tumors, pituitary tumors require regular monitoring, especially for changes in the tumor. Patients should also maintain proper sleep schedules, avoid ionizing radiation and exposure to X-rays, so as to effectively protect anterior pituitary function and promptly detect any hormonal secretion abnormalities in the body.
