Hi, I went through a similar experience, gained weight with pregnancy and could not lose it no matter what I tried...then I started a LOW CARB diet.....I lost 75 lbs in 7 months.....Now I don't know if there is a link between carbs in pituitary levels or not, but it really worked for me...I have a prolactinoma and am now on Dostinex, and I find that Dostinex helps me keep my weight down...I went off it for 6 months after my tumour shrunk and I stopped my Low Carb diet also and quickly gained weight...now that I'm back on Dostinex and watch my carb intake...not as strict as before mind you, but since I have lost the 7 lbs I've gained and am able to keep my weight steady again..
