TSH less than 5 is normal so you do not require any medication if TSh values are less than 5
There is no correlation between deranged thyroid and prolactin levels
Prolactin levels are also increased in patient with stress exercise should help control stress

Hypothyroidism can cause increase in prolactin levels. Levothyroxine can control' both.
If prolactin is still high you need more investigation. Consult endocrinologist.
