My wife hasn't been pregnant for 2 years after having two abortions, but lately, there's a watery liquid coming from her nipples. We saw a gynecologist who did a prolactin test, and the result was 42.88 ng/ml. The doctor said not to worry and gave some medication. Will this condition go away with just the medicine, or is surgery needed?

The watery discharge from your wife's nipples, also known as galactorrhea, can often be managed with medication, especially if the prolactin level is elevated. If the prolactin level is not too high, medication might not be necessary, but the doctor may prescribe it to regulate the hormone levels. Surgery is typically not required for galactorrhea unless the cause is a pituitary tumor, which is rare

View allI've heard about a multivitamin but I'm curious about what makes it special. Is it just a regular multivitamin, or does it have benefits over something like Revital H for women? I'm also looking for something that can help with fatigue, hot flashes, and improve my vision. Any suggestions?
