Induction of ovulation and pregnancy in a pituitary dwarf.

Abstract
Females with pituitary dwarfism of the multiple pituitary hormone deficiency form have ovarian failure due to hypogonadotropism which would be expected to respond favorably to human gonadotropin treatment. This is a description of a pituitary dwarf in whom pregnancy was achieved with gonadotropin therapy; its progress was followed regularly by hormone assays.
