Patient's question:
After three miscarriages, the prolactin level is now high. Is there still a chance for this body to conceive?Doctor's answer:
Hello: In patients with hyperprolactinemia, about one-fourth are caused by pituitary tumors, while others can be triggered by factors such as hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction, hypothyroidism, renal insufficiency, other malignant tumors, chest wall injury, or drug effects. When prolactin levels are excessively high, they can inhibit the secretion of gonadotropins by the pituitary and directly affect the synthesis of sex hormones in the ovaries, leading to low serum estrogen levels. This can disrupt ovarian function, reduce ovulation, or cause anovulatory galactorrhea, and in severe cases, amenorrhea, resulting in infertility. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a thorough examination to identify the specific cause and receive targeted treatment. Wishing you good health!
