I am currently managing PCOD and have completed a two month course, now starting my third month. Recently, I have been experiencing frequent and severe headaches. My doctor advised me to get my prolactin levels tested, and my blood report shows a prolactin level of 44.45 ng per ml. Could you please advise what steps I should take next?

A slightly raised prolactin level can occur in PCOD or even due to stress. Your doctor may adjust medication accordingly. Exercise helps in resolving PCOD. Stay calm, and track this with repeat testing.
