Recently, I got a full body checkup done. I discovered that my prolactin level is 65, which is above the normal range for a non pregnant woman. Is this alarming? What could be the possible reasons for this?

A prolactin level of 65 is above the normal range, but its not always a cause for concern. It can rise due to stress, sleep disturbance, certain medications, or hormonal shifts. Sometimes thyroid issues or a small hormonal gland change could be the reason. Repeating the prolactin test and checking your thyroid levels is a good next step.

My report shows that my thyroid TSH is 1.88 and serum prolactin level is 33.70 ng/mL. I am unsure what to do next.

After a scan and blood tests, I have been diagnosed with PCOS. My results show AMH 7.5, prolactin 40, and vitamin D 13, while all other parameters are normal. My doctor has prescribed Myo inositol and Cabergoline 0.5?mg once a week for three weeks. I am confused about the Myo inositol dosage: should I take 2 tablets per day? I have a total of 60 Myo inositol tablets. Should I take both medications in the same month, or should I finish the Myo inositol first and then start Cabergoline? Please guide me.

I was diagnosed with PID in a sonography test two weeks ago. Now, I have noticed some white discharge coming from my breast. What does this mean? The sonography was done two days after my period ended.
