A member asked:

2 months ago i had blood test and found that i got very high prolactin level, doctors gave me drugs to lower the level , sex could make me pregnant now?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Even with moderately high prolactins you may still ovulate, but normalizing the level means the rate of ovulation will likely go to near normal. Birth control options should be discussed.

Dr Higginbotham agreed
