Hello Misbah
Thank you for getting in touch with us. As I see your prolactin levels were elevated and you were started on Bromocriptine. Bromocriptine is the treatment of choice for most patients with increased prolactin levels and is able to decrease the levels of prolactin. However we would recommend you to get a periodic checkup done on regular basis. This includes prolactin levels and scan of the pituitary gland to see if there are any additional complications. The green fluid coming out of your left breast will disappear as soon as the prolactin levels are under control. Hope this helped.
Regards
Dr Gagandeep Dhillon
