A member asked:

When taking cabergoline, will my testosterone levels return to normal as well? if high prolactin was the cause of lower testosterone.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe: But only if the elevated prolactin was the cause of the low t. If you have a pituitary adenoma and the cells of the pituitary have been damaged and aren't telling the testis to produce t, lowering prolactin may not be fully effective.
