Smart Testing – Prolactin
$11.00 – $28.00
The prolactin blood test measures the level of prolactin, a hormone produced by the pituitary gland. Prolactin is primarily responsible for milk production in women but can also affect reproductive health in both men and women. Abnormal prolactin levels can indicate issues with the pituitary gland, menstrual problems, infertility, or other hormonal imbalances.
3 Common Symptoms to Monitor:
-
Unexplained milk production (galactorrhea) – Even in non-pregnant women or men, elevated prolactin levels can cause abnormal milk production.
-
Irregular periods – High prolactin levels can disrupt the menstrual cycle, leading to missed or irregular periods.
-
Infertility – Both men and women with elevated prolactin levels may experience difficulty getting pregnant.
