A member asked:

What to do if i have high dhea and prolactin. prolatinoma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Thomas Knecht answered

Nt related: Hi. Elevated prolactin (PRL) is usually due to a prolactinoma, although some drugs can elevate prolactin. Elevated PRL does not cause an elevation in DHEA; the two are independent and not related.
