Hi,

I will suggest you to have your blood prolactin level test done and blood thyroid level done to detect any abnormality. Tablet Cabergoline 0.5 mg can be used to treat this condition if there is high prolactin level in the body.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
