Suggest Ways To Lower Prolactin Levels
Question: can you please tell me what natural ways i can lower prolactin?
Brief Answer:
Based on the cause
Detailed Answer:
Good day,
Noted your concern.
Prolactin is a hormone produced by pituitary gland and the levels goes high naturally during stress, in females during breast feeding and pregnancy, after intercourse, after seizures etc. Besides, pituitary masses , certain drugs as well as thyroid problems can cause high prolactin levels. The treatment is based on the cause.
If the prolactin levels are high due to stress, reducing stress may help to lower the levels. If the prolactin levels are due to certain drugs ( medicines for acidity, vomiting etc), avoiding these drugs may help to reduce prolactin levels.. If the Prolactin levels are due to pituitary masses, you will need drugs to reduce it.
Please feel free to ask more if you have nay more doubts
