No, trauma doesn't cause such condition.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

The answer to your question is straightforward no, trauma doesn't cause increase in prolactin and/or galactorhea.

In my opinion you should be checked about conditions such pituitary gland tumor ( prolactinoma), hypothyroidism, chronic kidneys disease etc.

Discuss with your Doctor about these issues.

Take care.
