Abstract excerpt

Prolactin is a major hormone, involved in gonadotroph axis regulation. Hyperprolactinemia induces gonadotropin deficiency and therefore hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. It should be suspected in front of menstrual cycle abnormalities, infertility and/or galactorrhea. If drugs and/or PRL adenoma represent the vast majority of causes of hyperprolactinemia, other etiologies and misleading diagnosis of...
