Pituitary, 2008
In several respects prolactin is unique among anterior pituitary hormones. The primary regulation of prolactin secretion is mediated through hypothalamic inhibition, and the diagnosis of hyperprolactinemia can be established without the use of stimulation or suppression tests.

Hyperprolactinemia and Prolactinomas
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2008Any process interfering with dopamine synthesis, its transport to the pituitary gland, or its action at the level of lactotroph dopamine receptors can cause hyperprolactinemia. As described in this article, considering the complexity of prolactin regulation, many factors could cause hyperprolactinemia, and hyperprolactinemia can have clinical effects ...

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1983We investigated the frequency of headaches in women with menstrual abnormalities and hyperprolactinemia. Twenty-seven of 46 (58%) women with hyperprolactinemia indicated that headache episodes occur once or more per week; patients with sellar abnormalities (macroadenoma) or previous cranial or pituitary operation were excluded from this group of ...

Hyperprolactinemia and Impotence
Archives of Andrology, 1988One hundred impotent men and 15 sexually active male volunteers served as the source for this study. Serum prolactin was estimated in all cases using radioimmunoassay technique. Cases with hyperprolactinemia were treated with bromocriptine for 3 months.

Hyperprolactinemia and Infertility
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2011Prolactin-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
