I'm trying to get pregnant but I'm dealing with a prolactin level of 37 and an AMH level of 1.46. I've taken medication for the prolactin issue, and there were 4 pills involved. Do you think I can still get pregnant? I'm also on letrozole and duphaston at the moment. My doctor mentioned IUI as a possibility, but I'm feeling really confused about what to do next. Any advice?
