Is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome with Hyperprolactinemia Difficult to Treat?

Patient's question:

I had an ultrasound, which confirmed that I have polycystic ovary syndrome. Then a few days ago, on the third day of my period, I had an empty stomach blood test. The doctor said I have hyperprolactinemia. I wasn't overweight before I turned 24, but in the past two years, I don't know what happened, but I've gained weight. I don't know what to do. Is it difficult to treat? I want to have a baby. SOS.

Doctor's answer:

According to the materials you submitted, the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is conditional. It includes irregular menstruation, oligomenorrhea, or ovulation induction. 2. Abnormal test results, such as hyperandrogenism or high insulin levels. 3. A careful ultrasound examination shows polycystic changes in the ovaries. Among the above three conditions, meeting any two can be diagnosed as PCOS. You meet the criteria for PCOS. Your first question, high prolactin levels, can interfere with menopausal function. It is recommended to use bromocriptine for treatment.
