Dr. Edward Kuhnley answered

Specializes in Child Psychiatry

Doctor should tell: However, there are old studies that reported basal prolactin levels were influenced by a history of chronic tic disorder and by the duration and severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Check with your doctor to determine the reason and the results. Best regards.

My recent blood test has shown my serum Prolactin levels are 1621 mU/l. I have milky discharge from my breasts. I have been taking Sertraline for nearly 7 years now - is it likely that this is the cause? I'm not pregnant. Is 1621mU/l really high?
