Prolactin test
Hi Dr
I have taken prolactin test in january on day 2 of period in the morning at 7 AM and found its 36
I didnt took any tablets. I just did yoga . Now again i took the test on may 2 in the afternoon at 2 PM. And it showed 19 now
I am confused now. Does my prolactin really reduced in 3 mnths or it varied due to the timing and the day i did test varies?
Pls suggest

Both values are normal nothing to worry
Borderline raised prolactin levels can be seen in stress
The best time to check prolactin levels is within 3 hours of getting up in the morning
