Track Your Hormone Levels With Our
Prolactin Test At Your Doorstep!
Prolactin is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland near the base of the brain. It is present in the blood stream of both men and women, however it is more important to women as compared to men because of its functions related to breast milk and fertility. A prolactin test is recommended by doctors when:
- Irregular Menstrual Cycle – High prolactin levels can lead to irregular periods or absence of periods in women.
- Infertility – Prolactin can interfere with ovulation and conceiving. Elevated levels in men can also lead to infertility. Fertility tests often include prolactin level testing.
- Low libido & Decreased Sex Drive – Increased prolactin levels can decrease sexual drive in both men and women. In men increased prolactin can suppress testosterone production.
- Headaches & Vision Problems – Headaches and vision problems are a common symptom of increased prolactin level in men and women.
- Erectile Dysfunction – High prolactin levels can lead to decreased testosterone levels, leading to difficulties with erections.
- Fatigue & Weakness – Too high or too low levels of prolactin can lead to general feeling of tiredness and fatigue.
- Inadequate Milk Production – Breastfeeding women may experience difficulty in milk production due to low prolactin.
- Weight Gain & Mood Swings – Hormonal imbalance can lead to unexplained weight gain, anxiety, depression and mood swings.
