General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Consult an endocrinologist and get evaluated. We have to rule out possible pituitary causes also. An MRI head is required for further assessment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
