May be Pituitary: The next step is a consultation with an Endocrinologist (Gland specialist). It may require additional Hormone testing as well as some x rays/MRI of the Pituitary the gland located at the base of your brain which controls other glands in your body. Ask your PCP (Primary Care Physician) Hope this helps!

Prolactin: You need to figure out why it is high! This can be from simple thing like stress, can be hormonal (thyroid) or can be from primary pituitary problem. Talk to your Family doctor or your OB/GYN
