I don't know a lot about it, but I would think that you would need to do something to help regulate it. If it is not functioning properly, then your body will not have the right hormones to help you get pregnant. I think there are some "natural" things doctors who try and take a holistic approach could give you. Also, you need to be sure there is nothing serious going on to cause the pituitary gland to not function properly.

I do believe you could still conceive though, but may need some type of med. Good luck!

Here is something I found on the pituitary.. I hope this helps. I know it's supposed to help trigger ovulation.

In women, a common cause of infertility is an ovulation problem—that is, the ovaries do not release an egg each month (see Biology of the Female Reproductive System: Follicular Phase). Ovulation problems result when one part of the system that controls reproductive function malfunctions. This system includes the hypothalamus (an area of the brain), pituitary gland, adrenal glands, thyroid gland, and genital organs. For example, the ovaries may not produce enough progesterone, the female hormone that causes the lining of the uterus to thicken in preparation for a potential fetus. Ovulation may not occur because the hypothalamus does not secrete gonadotropin-releasing hormone, which stimulates the pituitary gland to produce the hormones that trigger ovulation (luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone). High levels of prolactin (hyperprolactinemia), a hormone that stimulates milk production, may result in low levels of the hormones that trigger ovulation. Prolactin levels may be high because of a pituitary gland tumor (prolactinoma), which is almost always noncancerous. Ovulation problems may be due to polycystic ovary syndrome, thyroid gland disorders, adrenal gland disorders, excessive exercise, diabetes, weight loss, obesity, or psychologic stress. Sometimes the cause is early menopause—when the supply of eggs has run out early.
