Related medical information

Prolactin is a hormone that can rise for several reasons, including normal physiological changes, medication effects and certain medical conditions. A single elevated measurement does not establish a diagnosis.

A clinician may review symptoms and medicines or recommend repeat testing and additional investigations. Do not stop prescribed medication or start treatment on your own.
