Re: Anyone have a prolactenoma?

My gyn thought I did in September. After my blood work revealed really high prolactin level. The MRI revealed my pituitary gland was just swollen. I was referred to a neuro-endocrinologist who requested my MRI , she said is possible I may have a micro-prolactinoma.
I was started on bromocriptine & my prolactin level returned to normal the following month. I am not sure how long I'll be on bromocriptine, my doctor said it is okay to ttc while on this medication. Even though it was scary experience, I am glad that there is a clinical reason why I was not gettting pregnant. Hope this helpful.
And Yes, It was difficult finding research online. Hang in there.
