A member asked:
What are options for prolactin producing adenomas with reocurring symptoms after surgery and radiation are preformed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Medical treatment: Typically, prolactin producing adenomas, or prolactinomas, can be effectively treated with a class of medications called Dopamine agonists, such as bromocriptine. Your endocrinologist should be able to prescribe these medications, if appropriate.
