Premature pubarche as a first presentation of pituitary macroprolactinoma
Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2020 Prolactinoma is a rare tumor of childhood. Clinical presentations of prolactinoma include amenorrhea, delayed puberty, and galactorrhea. For the first time, in this case, elevated prolactin levels were associated with unexpected premature pubarche.

Macroprolactinaemia in a 33-year old premenopausal Nigerian woman: a case report [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Macroprolactin is a 150-170kDa heteropolymeric complex of monomeric prolactin and immunoglobulin G (IgG) that contributes less than 1% of circulating prolactin concentration in plasma. It exerts little or no biological action in vivo.
