    Thank you for this video…What are healthy levels mine came back 340 mU/L and the progesterone only 8 about 10 days post ovulation. I’ve sent the result to my fertility Doctor. Glad the information out there has me more informed but confused about what types of tests should be considered.

    Hi. Does high prolactin always mean there’s a tumour? No symptoms at all but blood test shows abnormal prolactin?

    I been taking high doses of antipsychotics for about 10 years in depot injection form due to mental health history and i have now serious problems with my health which i am convinced it has been caused by the use of antipsychotics over the years. I have gained 30kg in total of weight when before I ever had any medication I had no problems with weight and in my bloods my cholesterol levels was high and also my prolactin was very high over 500 and I struggling to concieve with my partner. I am very sad about this and feel like the medication I was forced to take as literally ruined my life and the worse thing is Doctors seem to shrug this off and insist I should still take the medication. Within mind I have had no psychotic issues in several years. It make me feel so sad and like they don't care how it affecting me. I took a few different antipsychotics over 10 years such as Olanzipine, Depixol, Risperidone and Aripiprazole and Anti depressants Fluoxetine and Sertriline and even though I was told Ablify has the least side effects it still hasn't made any difference. My prolactin levels still high and my weight still problem. I no longer want the medication and I just wish mental health services would literally leave me alone. My self esteem is practically non existant and I feel betrayed by the system as I felt like they should help me but I feel they made my life worse for me.

    Glad I found your video! My prolactin was at 35 last June and just did blood work again and found it was at 11 this year. My previous OBGYN had scheduled an MRI to see if the prolactinoma was present but due to money issues I never went through with it. Now this doctor said the level is normal so she is holding off on the imaging unless TTC continues to be a problem. I'm just curious as to what can cause the drastic drop? I haven't done anything to drastic in lifestyle changes 🤔

  • @shonnetcheeseman995
    @shonnetcheeseman995 Před 2 lety

    Is it normal for IUIs not be cancelled even though your prolactin levels are high? They said mine was "mildly elevated" I was placed on bromocriptine (I didn't get another test as you spoke about) and the meds weren't working to reduce my levels... nevertheless they proceeded with the IUIs because they said it shouldn't affect it because it was only mildly elevated. I had 3 failed IUIs. I should mention that the original reason for the iuis was my husband's motility but his numbers were really good for all 3 iuis. It makes me wonder if the iuis failed because of my prolactin levels.

    • @InfertilityTV
      @InfertilityTV  Před 3 lety +1

      Ovulation is unlikely to occur until after prolactin levels are down into the normal range which in most labs is less than 25. Some prolactinomas may require surgery to remove if medication fails

    Buona sera, scrivo in italiano perché non conosco i termini esatti in inglese... Sto guardando molti video in cerca di risposte e alcune ne ho trovate... Non ho trovato però se c'è qualche legame tra l'allattamento e l'aborto tubarico... Mi spiego meglio: sto allattando ancora abbondantemente la mia bimba di quasi 2 anni, ho una fase luteale corta poiché tra l'ovulazione e l'arrivo del ciclo mestruale passano circa 8 giorni, nonostante questa fase luteale corta io e mio marito abbiamo cercato di concepire ed è successo che l'embrione si è impiantato nella tuba... La cosa si è risolta in in aborto spontaneo strettamente controllato con prelievi di bhcg senza l'uso di metotrexate ne intervento... Vorrei sapere se la causa di questo impianto extrauterino può essere stato l'allattamento... Ringrazio molto in caso di risposta

    Hi Dr, I am 32, my husband and I have been trying to have a baby, including timing our sex with ovulation strips for about 13 months and no luck. We went to a fertility specialist who initially detected high prolactin, but after further testing said I have MACROPROLACTINEMIA which does not affect my fertility. I am essentially normal but still not pregnant. What can we try next? Should we try IUI or IVF or keep trying naturally ? I know it's a probability game and no one can answer for certain but still would help tremendously to have guidance

    My prolactin level was 95 first test in the evening and 85 second test in the morning 2 days apart. I read everyone’s comments about trying to get pregnant, but I’m not. I’m 43 years old with 2 adult daughters and a teenage son. I noticed something was strange when I missed two periods and I wasn’t pregnant. I actually like not having a menstrual cycle, but my doctor said I have to have one since I’m not in the early stages of menopause. All of my other lab work checked out normal. Is this true that I need to have a cycle? What are the dangers to my health, if I don’t take the meds to lower my prolactin levels?

    • @InfertilityTV
      @InfertilityTV  Před 3 lety +3

      There is no health benefit from bleeding every month. However, absence of a period is an indicator that ovulation is not happening. Without ovulation, women are at greater risk for developing uterine cancer, especially if they are overweight or obese. Doctors may recommend steps to reduce the risk for developing cancer such as taking progesterone.
      Elevated prolactin levels may also be an indication for other problems such as a pituitary adenoma that should be investigated

    Hello dr, thank you for the informations that you provide. I was wondering if you could juste give me an advice , actually i have started trying to get pregnant two months ago I'm newly married ; I'm 27 years old , i did my prolactine test and it was 37,75ng/ml ( the lab normal level is from 5 to 35 ). my FSH is 4,25 mUI/ml, progesterone is 9.78ng/mL in my luteal phase. Also my all other indicators are very good . I have regular period and good ovulation.
    My gynecologist actually has given me a medication to start treating high prolactine. Do you really think i should start treating it ? I'm really concerned please answer me , your opinion is very important for me. All the love from Algeria.

      Many doctors look at prolactin levels at the wrong time of the cycle. If the blood is drazwn after ovulation, prolactin levels will be higher but that does not necessarily mean treatment is needed. Watch the video for all the information about when to draw prolactin and pay attention to the part about testing monomeric prolactin to see who really needs treatment
