Prolactin Test In Faridabad - Price & Details

Although the prolactin hormone is present in both males and females, it is generally low in nonpregnant females and males. However, it is possible for those who are not pregnant to have high prolactin levels. For example, high prolactin levels in nonpregnant women can cause menstrual issues and infertility. As for males, high prolactin levels can cause erectile dysfunction and a lower sex drive. Those who have any type of tumour in their pituitary gland can also have high prolactin levels.

If you are a woman who is facing infertility issues or problems with menstruation, your doctor will ask you to get a prolactin test. The test is also advised for women who are producing breast milk even though they are not pregnant. As for men, it is ordered if they are facing decreased sex drives, difficulties in getting an erection, and secreting milk (rare symptom).

Since the prolactin test is a simple blood test, no special preparation is required. However, it is recommended to take the test about three to four hours after waking up. This is because our prolactin levels are at their highest early in the morning and would help guarantee accurate results.
