Hyperprolactinemia and Infertility

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2011
Prolactin-secreting pituitary tumors are a common cause of amenorrhea and infertility in premenopausal women. The goals of therapy are to normalize prolactin, restore gonadal function and fertility, and reduce tumor size, and dopamine agonists are the preferred therapy. Clinically significant tumor enlargement during pregnancy is uncommon and dependent

Galactorrhea and Hyperprolactinemia

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1983
Galactorrhea refers to the secretion of a milky fluid from the breast occurring either spontaneously or with manual expression in the absence of pregnancy or the postpartum state. The development of a sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay for human prolactin during the last decade along with improved neuroradiologic techniques have greatly expanded ...

Hyperprolactinemia

Treatments in Endocrinology, 2003
Hyperprolactinemia is commonly found in both female and male patients with abnormal sexual and/or reproductive function or with galactorrhea. If serum prolactin levels are above 200 microg/L, a prolactin-secreting pituitary adenoma (prolactinoma) is the underlying cause, but if levels are lower, differential diagnoses include the intake of various ...

Headache, Hyperprolactinemia, and Prolactinomas

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1987
The present study was undertaken to investigate whether headache in women with nonpuerperal hyperprolactinemia was related to elevated serum prolactin (PRL) levels or the presence of a PRL-secreting pituitary adenoma. The subjects were 469 women seen initially during the period of 1973 to 1979 at four clinical centers with the complaints of secondary ...

Somatotropin secretion in hyperprolactinemia

Neuroscience and Behavioral Physiology, 1983
1. HPL patients characteristically show depressed basal levels of STH. 2. Patients with HPL and radiologically confirmed pituitary adenoma show an altered response of the somatotropic structures to glucose challenge and marked circadian variations in the STH circadian pattern. 3.

Depression and hostility in hyperprolactinemia

Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, 1982
1. Patients with hyperprolactinemia offer a unique opportunity to investigate the effects of prolactin on psychological states. Women with hyperprolactinemic amenorrhea rated themselves significantly more hostile, more depressed and more anxious than women with amenorrhea only and normal women. 2.

Pathologic Hyperprolactinemia

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1992
Unlike other pituitary hormones, PRL is under tonic inhibition by the hypothalamus by way of the PRL inhibitory factor, dopamine. GAP and GABA may also be inhibitory. PRL-releasing factors include TRH and VIP and possibly others. Circulating PRL is predominantly monomeric, although some patients with hyperprolactinemia appear to have increased ...

Adjunctive metformin for antipsychotic-related hyperprolactinemia: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Journal of Psychopharmacology, 2017
Hyperprolactinemia is a common and severe antipsychotic-induced adverse drug reaction. This meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials systematically examined the efficacy and safety of adjunctive metformin for antipsychotic-related hyperprolactinemia
