A member asked:

How does one change of the prolactin level in men?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Is it high?: Hi. I hate to assume, but you don't state if your prolactin is high. I must, therefore assume it is. High prolactin in men is lowered the same way it is in women - with a pill called cabergoline. It's very effective in almost all cases. Good luck!

Hi doctors. If a male has a prolactinoma, how high would prolactin levels usually be? I read that the upper limit for men is 20--mine is 22.2. Are medications effective in treating prolactinomas, or is surgery usually necessary?
