Will Pituitary Gland recover its functions after surgery on it?(Craniopharyngioma)?
It is possible, but unlikely. I am basing my answers on talking to others with pituitary surgery. You did not list the hormones you take but I had pituitary surgery too. I had two pituitary tumors. In general, TSH does not come back. Growth hormone can come and go depending on where you had the surgery – but it is the first hormone to go when hormones go. ADH usually comes back but not in everyone. Cortisol will not come back if you have been on it for an extended time. Be careful weaning on that one. There is no natural source that I know of. I do myself go to acupuncture for relief from some symptoms. I see a doctor who does acupuncture.
