Hi,

Parlodel is for a prolactic secreting growth in the brain. The prolactic would gnerally be very high.
Mostly someone is going to need testosterone if the testosterone and the testosterone stimulating hormones are low. Surgery fixes prolactin-secreting growths but a head scan would be needed to see it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
