Does Prolactine Level Of 28 Indicate Pregnancy?
Question: my prolactine level is 28 as per reports. Am i pregnant?
Brief Answer:
Not due to pregnancy.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Raised prolactin levels are not suggestive of pregnancy. This can cause a delay in periods and can happen due to lactation or pituitary tumors or mild hormonal disturbance.
To check for pregnancy it is best test your urine for HCG by using kits available over the counter after your periods are overdue.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Thanks Doctor.
I already had that urine pregnancy test done. Nothing to worry about as per that test report.
Today i found spotting of blood.. May be this is good sign of my periods are knocking or may be something else.
Doctor Anyways i am going to have my ultrasound done very soon to get clear about anything.
Tell me what if it found to be the symptoms of pregnancy that what should be the preventive ways to avoid this pregnancy(except any kind of surgery) as i am not ready for this.
I am waiting for your reply. Please suggest me the best. I am scared.
