Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Pituitary gland is the master gland in the body which control all hormones in the body.
So hormonal imbalance is likely in your case.
So you need to take eltroxin (thyroid hormone supplement) life long.
You are advised crestor mostly due to obesity.
To control obesity, you need to follow strict diet, avoid snacks and exercise regimen.
Ford this better to consult dietician.
Avoid stress and tension. Avoid oily and fatty food. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals. Eat high fiber diet like green vegetables, fruits etc.
Do regular aerobic exercise like running, cycling, swimming etc.
Don't worry, you will be alright. You willing definitely loose weight.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
