Medications commonly cause hyperprolactinemia and their use must be differentiated from pathologic causes. The most common medications to cause hyperprolactinemia are the antipsychotic agents, although some of the newer atypical antipsychotics do not do so.

Several reports indicate that raised serum prolactin concentrations occur in 15 to 20 per cent of women with amenorrhea1 , 2 and that when the prolactin levels are reduced, normal ovulation cycles and fertility return.3 , 4 Successful management of these cases depends on reliable identification of hyperprolactinemic amenorrhea and accurate diagnosis of

Hypothyroidism-induced hyperprolactinemia, with or without clinical manifestations, is reported in a short case in addition to the results of basal and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH)-induced prolactin values in primary hypothyroidism. In comparison with an age- and sex-matched group, basal- (P less than 0.02) and TRH-induced (P less than 0.02 ...

Metabolism, 1964
Summary The present status of the chemistry of prolactin obtained from ovine pituitary glands has been reviewed. The phenomenon of polymerization of the molecule has been emphasized. Recent experiments resulting in the isolation of monomeric prolactin were described.

Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 1985
This review summarizes evidence suggesting a direct luteotrophic role for the hypophyseal hormone prolactin (PRL). This direct role consists of the capability to stimulate progesterone synthesis in vitro, the capability to maintain the membrane fluidity and receptors for luteinizing hormone and the capability to import substrate for progesterone ...

Prolactin and the Prolactin Receptor
2001In mammals, prolactin is both an explicit inducer of mammary-gland development and lactation, and an integrator of multiple physiological adaptations during the post-mating phase of the reproductive cycle. These general features of the physiology of mammalian prolactin appear to have evolved from the effects of prolactin on parental physiology and ...

Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2009
The relationship between prolactin and the immune system has been demonstrated in the last two decades, opening new windows in the field of the immunoendocrinology. Prolactin has an important role in the innate and adaptive immune response. Increased prolactin levels have been described in autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus ...

Patients with primary infertility due to hyperprolactinemic corpus luteum insufficiency and oligomenorrhea were treated with Bromocriptin. Suppression of serum prolactin for up to four menstrual cycles resulted in a normalisation of the length of the cycle(32 vs 28 days) as well as of luteal progesterone secretion.

Prolactin and immunomodulation
The American Journal of Medicine, 1993To review the recent exploration of the role of prolactin in immune function.Studies published that were identified through a MEDLINE search as well as through the bibliographies of those articles enumerated.Both humoral and cell-mediated immunity are compromised in hypophysectomized rats. The reintroduction of prolactin to these animals restores their
