Specializes in Fertility Medicine

Prolactin: the prolactin causes that. there are several possibilities of why the prolactin is high but it takes a few more hormone tests to determine that. normally the treatment is medicine like dostinex (cabergoline) to lower the prolactin and normally everything goes to normal
