A member asked:
Can somebody tell me how can a pituitary tumor affect milk production?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prolactin: Hi. The most common hormone-producing tumor is the prolactinoma, which secretes prolactin. This causes cessation of menstrual periods an production of breast milk when you're not nursing a baby. It's common & almost always easy to treat without surgery. Talk with your gynecologist. Good luck!
