Probably an Endo: From the way your question is written an endocrinologist would have more answers than a ENT. But you can ask your primary physician for a referral to the correct specialist.

Endo + Surgeon: Best to see both an endocrinologist and a surgeon, either ENT or neuro. The former can discuss medication options to control excess prolactin while latter two can discuss surgical options especially if there's mass effect from enlargement. Radiation may be another option offered. Check out http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/prolactinoma/basics/definition/con-20028094.
