A member asked:

What does high prolactin levels with high red blood cells with high hemoglobin and hematocrit levels mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Needs work up: High prolactin level can have several reasons. High hemoglobin can be secondary to other causes or a primary bone marrow issue that your bone marrow is making too many red cell out of control. See a hematologist/oncologist for work up.
