Guest guest Posted June 14, 2002 Report Share Posted June 14, 2002 help on any articles > I know it has been mentioned here that chiari can affect the hormones in people and I am wondering if there is any papers or articles that have been written? > Hi Colleen, Empty Sella can cause problems with hormones. Here is a good link that helps explain why: http://www.pituitary.com/firstaid/disorders/EmptySellaSyndrome.htm My cycle started going off after the birth of our first child. That is when my chiari symptoms started to progress. I lactated between babies, and until our youngest was 8, when I had a breast reduction. I could have been a wet nurse and made some $$. All of this talk over sweating, I also used to sweat uncontrollably. My pcp thought I was going into menopause early. But my " hot flashes " would last hours at a time! Since my second decompression I no longer shower in may own sweat! :-) Kathleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
