What Is the S. Prolactin Test?

Doctors may recommend this test when they want to investigate symptoms that could be associated with an abnormal prolactin level.

In women, testing may be considered for:
- Irregular menstrual periods
- Difficulty becoming pregnant

Prolactin and Women’s Health
Prolactin is particularly important during pregnancy and breastfeeding because it helps stimulate milk production.
Outside pregnancy and breastfeeding, an unusually high prolactin level may sometimes be associated with menstrual changes, fertility problems or unexpected milk production.
Prolactin and Men’s Health
Although prolactin is commonly associated with breastfeeding, it is also present in men.
Abnormal prolactin levels in men may sometimes be associated with changes in sexual function, fertility or other hormonal symptoms.
What Can Cause High Prolactin?
Prolactin levels can increase for several reasons, including pregnancy, breastfeeding, certain medications and some medical conditions.
Temporary factors such as stress, exercise and stimulation of the breasts can also influence prolactin levels.
An abnormal result does not automatically mean that there is a serious health problem.
How Is the Prolactin Test Done?
The test requires a small blood sample, usually collected from a vein in the arm.
Because prolactin levels can change during the day and can be affected by factors such as stress, your doctor or laboratory may provide specific instructions about the best time to give the sample.
Does the Prolactin Test Require Fasting?
Fasting requirements can vary depending on the laboratory and the reason for testing. Follow the instructions provided by your doctor or diagnostic centre.
Tell your healthcare professional about any medicines or supplements you take, as some medications can affect prolactin levels.
