Hyperprolactinemia is a condition in which blood prolactin levels are elevated. This finding may have a variety of causes and should not be interpreted on the basis of a single laboratory result alone. During evaluation, the endocrinologist considers symptoms, medical history, medication use, and other diagnostic findings. Once the abnormality is confirmed, the need for additional evaluation and treatment is determined. At Ahvar Clinic, the approach to hyperprolactinemia focuses on identifying the likely cause and selecting an individualized follow-up or treatment strategy.
