It depends: For a male person it is definitely high . For a pregnant and lactating women it is normal . For any other woman it is borderline . Keep in mind that prolactin level fluctuate dung the time of the day being high at night . Another issue is people on Dopamine antagonist like antipsychotic medication have high prolactin level

Depends: Values greater than 25 are generally considered high for women. However there can be great variations in levels depending on menstrual cycle stage, pregnancy, lactation, and age. Discuss with your physician.
