Does Prolactine Which Is High 23.3 Having Disturb Pregnancy ?
Question: I am 33 years old. I have been trying to get pregnant for almost a year, with no success. I did a blood test yesterday and found out everything was ok but the prolactine, which was high (23.3). Could this be the problem or should i keep testing (tubes)? I have been pregnant before, 15 years ago, but I had and abortion (voluntary, I was too young).
Brief Answer:
Tube testing needed
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I understand your concerns about infertility.
Serum Prolactin at 23 is not very high and May not be reason for infertility.
You need to do following tests:
1) HSG - Fallopian tubes testing
2) AMH blood test to check your egg reserve
3) Semen Analysis for your husband.
