How to lower prolactin

2021-07-04 18:55:03
My prolactin levels were high - 48.70 but I didn't get a pooled prolactin test done. How can I lower it. Do I need meds? I have pcod and my doctor said she would only prescribe meds if it's over 50 in pooled prolactin test

Pooled sample is always more reliable. There are various physiological and pathological reasons of raised prolactin. Need detailed clinical and biochemical examination. Treatment depends on the cause.
