Background: Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (NCCAH) is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from loss of function mutations of the 21-hydroxylase gene. It is characterized by mild cortisol deficiency, excess ACTH production, and androgen excess, often with various features of dysmetabolic syndrome. Elective bariatric surgery is one of the most effective long-term management strategies for morbid and complicated obesity. This case presents a woman with NCCAH and complicated morbid obesity who s/p Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) had metabolic resolution of NCCAH and no longer required glucocorticoid (GC) therapy. Clinical Case: A 34-year-old G1P1 woman with NCCAH on glucocorticoid therapy, treated hypothyroidism with thyroid nodular disease, dyslipidemia, and morbid obesity (pre-RYGB BMI 60-69.9) initially presented to endocrinology on account of hirsutism and secondary amenorrhea attributed to PCOS. Work-up then confirmed diagnosis of NCCAH with 21-hydroxylase genetic testing showing deletion of one copy of CYP21A2 and the pathogenic variant p.V282L in the remaining copy. Outside the peripartum period, she was managed with OCP therapy, spironolactone, and metformin. She was additionally prescribed GC therapy of hydrocortisone 10mg TID following her diagnosis of NCCAH. She subsequently became pregnant unexpectedly. Post-partum course was complicated by significant weight gain, which led her to seek elective bariatric surgery for long-term weight management. At 5 months post-op, she had a weight deficit of ∼100lbs. Although she self-discontinued GC therapy due to fear of weight gain, her amenorrhea resolved, her hirsutism significantly improved, and lab testing revealed normalization of all NCCAH markers, including ACTH, 17-OHP, and androstenedione. Thus, GC therapy was not restarted. At 11 months post-op and still off GC therapy, she had a total weight deficit of ∼160lbs and continued metabolic resolution of NCCAH markers. Conclusions: This case presents a patient with NCCAH and morbid obesity who no longer required GC therapy post-RYGB. Presently, GC therapy remains the only available treatment for CAH; however, long-term GC therapy has the potential for myriad possible complications and side effects. Our case presents elective bariatric surgery as a potential and unique treatment option for patients with classi
