Prolactin Test

The Prolactin Test measures the level of prolactin, a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that plays a key role in reproductive health and lactation. This test is commonly used to:

• Diagnose causes of irregular menstrual cycles or infertility
• Investigate symptoms of elevated prolactin, such as galactorrhea (unexpected milk production)
• Assess pituitary gland function
• Evaluate possible causes of low libido or erectile dysfunction in men

The Prolactin Test provides important information about hormone imbalances that may affect fertility, reproductive health, and overall hormonal regulation.
