Women in the 25-35 age group have the highest risk to develop hyperprolactinemia. https://www.empoweryourhealth.org/magazine/vol11_issue1/high-prolactin-why-it-happens-and-when-to-treat

No ovulation... will this effect treatment?
Morning all, I have always had very regular periods but I had blood tests which showed no signs of ovulation. I had high levels of prolactin and the consultants assumed this was the reason. My prolactin has been reduced by being on bromocriptine however I have been doing ovulation tests and it never

‘Slightly Raised’ Prolactin in bloods...
I’ve read and re read the letter from my consultant as at first I thought ‘oh no! That’s it, game over, no FET for me ☹️!’ But I’m trying very hard to take comfort in the wording she used... ‘slightly raised’... even so she wants me to be re checked in a few weeks time... My son who’s 18 months will

3 month follow up PSA test
I went for my 3 month follow up PSA test after HDR Brachtherapy (monotherapy) which also tested for Testosterone. PSA came back at 0.5 which was very encouraging. My question is should my 6 month follow up test include any of the following or other tests as well? DHT, Prolactin, E2 peace!

Raising TSH and low Cortisol
Hi everyone. I hope you are all keeping safe with the current situation. I am under the endo now but slow going. Yesterdays bloods TSH 7.3 ref (0.35- 4.7) and T4 9.5 ref (7.8-21.0). They also took cortisol 251 (200-700) and prolactin 220 (70.0-550.0) as they wanted to rule out Addisons. These bloods

High Prolactin
Hi, this is a follow on from some previous posts, however I have some new results from some bloods I had done privately. I went to see an Endo as I had a raised Tsh of 4.38, he was concerned but also wanted me to be seen for potential pituitary problems. He wanted to check LH, FSH, Prolactin & Testostérone

Pituitary Problems
This is a follow on from some previous posts, I’ve started a new post in the hope it’s seen. A little update: so I went to my Private Endo app last night and the Dr was very good. Agreed that there’s a high chance that something is wrong in my Endo system, but didn’t jump on the thyroid. He seemed

Need some positivity :(
Hi all, we had our appointment yesterday and was told my husbands sperm is extremely low, we knew this but it’s getting worse. We cannot start Ivf yet because I have issues with a pituitary tumour which is releasing prolactin so until that reduces we can’t start IVF. They’ve suggested to start freezing
