Describe the pituitary gland and its location?

The pituitary gland, or hypophysis, is found at the base of the brain below the hypothalamus and the two structures are connected via the infundibulum, or pituitary stalk, which carries both axons and blood vessels.The pituitary gland is about 1- 1.5 cm in diameter and weighs approximately 0.5g although it tends to weigh approximately 20% more in women and may increase by 10% during pregnancy. It sits in the sella turcica which is a depression of the sphenoid bone at the base of the skull and lies behind the sphenoid sinus.The top of the sella turcica is covered by a diaphragm, which has a foramen in the centre through which the infundibulum passes.Superior to the diaphragm is the optic chiasm.The pituitary gland can be divided into two functionally and embryologically distinct parts. These are the anterior pituitary, or adenohypophysis, and the posterior pituitary, or neurohypophysis.The anterior pituitary makes up 75% of the total weight of the pituitary. The pars distalis forms the major part of the gland. The pars intermedia is rudimentary in man. The pars tuberalis runs up the pituitary stalk.The posterior pituitary is made up of neuronal processes and glia as an extension of the hypothalamus and its major part is the pars distalis, which lies behind the anterior pituiary in the sella turcica.

What could be the reason for a man not wanting to have sexual intercourse with his wife?

1. He may have developed ED. 2. He no longer is sexually attracted to her. 3. He has developed a low libido and isn't interested in sex with anyone. 4. He is having an affair. If your husband is diabetic or has had heart surgery of any kind this can certainly lower his libido. Medications for heart disease or depression can also lower the libido. See if you can get him for a good physical from your family doctor and be checked for thyroid (T3/T4 blood test), adrenal gland first. A dysfunctional thyroid or adrenal gland can create havoc with both men and women. You should be communicating more with your husband and asking him what is wrong. Lots of married couples can go through this problem.
