The authors describe the case of a woman with congenital panhypopituitarism who had a successful pregnancy after ovulation induction and optimization of hormonal replacement therapy. This case report emphasizes the importance of careful adjustment of hormonal replacement therapy in managing pregnant women with panhypopituitarism.
