Patient's question:
I have been married for a long time, but I have never had children. Later, during a medical check-up, I discovered that I had a disease—a pituitary tumor. However, it was too late. Now I am pregnant. My husband and I are very worried. Will my treatment affect the fetus? So, can I have an abortion if I am pregnant with a pituitary tumor?Doctor's answer:
Hello! I also had a similar experience. After two successful pregnancies, I was carefully examined and found to have high prolactin levels. The doctor prescribed bromocriptine (an expensive imported medication) for me, along with some herbs to regulate my period and replenish qi. Since my period had become relatively normal, even though my prolactin levels were still high (higher than yours), the doctor allowed me to become pregnant. In addition to treatment, I made sure to maintain a good mood in daily life, as a positive attitude is very helpful for recovery.
