Hello. I have been through your question and understand your concern.

It seems you have the signs of a Prolactin secreting pituitary gland adenoma.

I recommend the following
1. Serological test for hormones, especially prolactin
2. visual field examination
3. MRI for the sellar region
4. Endocrinological consult
5. Neurosurgical consult

Once you follow these steps, you will have all your questions answered.

Hope this helps, please feel free using healthcaremagic for further questions.
