A member asked:
Is there any recent research about what purpose prolactin serves in men or whether low prolactin levels are harmful for them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Little effect: Better understood is that hyperprolactinemia can cause erectile dysfunction and infertilty in men due suppressive effects on lh and fsh. There have been a few studies suggesting that hypoprolactinemia in men can also cause infertility in men.
