A member asked:
Taking cabergoline for increased prolactin level was at 485 went down to 33 within 5 months now prolactin is 35 why did it go up if i've been on meds?

Will fluctuate: Your prolactin level will fluctuate a little from day to day and even from different times of the day. If your blood was drawn every day for a week, there's a good chance you'd get a slightly different result every time. Not to worry...Going from 33 to 35 is hardly any change at all and you seem to be responding well to the medicine.
