1 year ago I done a cycle as a result my prolactin went up to 21.7 ng/mL
Eventually coming down after 7 months to 7.1
I got new blood work done last week and now my prolactin has gone back up to 14.4ng/mL
And I havent taken any hormones or steroids this whole time,
What could be the reason for that?
And is there a safe way to lower the prolactin with out cabergolin,
Thanks J
Ejaculation couple hours before the blood draw \ or too many in the last few days preceding the draw.
Abstain for 5-7 days and retest
If the above is not applicable for the increase then high dose vitamin B6 (100mg to 300mg ED) works for many to reduce prolactin
Ok thanks Il have a think about the B6 option,
@j.lee
Mine is literally the same as yours year round. It’s not high enough to really matter and it doesn’t effect my libido or erections. I attempted to lower it at first until I realized it didn’t matter.
Mine was 21.
Then went to 7 and now back at 14
But I have a bit of gyno from it,
So I might need to get the gyno removed If I cant lower the prolactin
@j.lee
I’d love to know how you found out that for sure the gyno was attributed to a small rise prolactin.
Also, why not just trial some tamoxifen and see if it reduces the gyno?
What is your Estradiol level?
Also, hypothyroidism can increase Prolactin.
Hi My estradiol is 24 at has been like that for the past 6 months,
My tsh and FT4 have also been really good the past 6 months TSH stays around 1.5
FT4 stays around 1.2
