Your pituitary gland is about the size of a pea and is situated in a bony hollow, just behind the bridge of your nose. It is attached to the base of your brain by a thin stalk.
The pituitary gland is often called the master gland because it controls several other hormone glands in your body, including the thyroid and adrenals, the ovaries and testicles.

If your pituitary gland is not producing sufficient amounts of one or more hormones this is called hypopituitarism.

If on the other hand you are over producing certain hormones, then you would have features due to the over production of the specific hormone concerned.

hope it helped you
