HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
High prolactin can cause delayed periods, so this may be the cause if the pregnancy tests are negative.
She may need to consider imaging of the brain such as CT scan to take a look at her brain.
This would determine if there is a mass in the brain causing the increased prolactin.
I hope this helps
