A prolactin (PRL) test can be used to determine how much prolactin is present in your blood. Prolactinoma, a pituitary gland tumour that reduces sex desire in males and results in infertility in women, is the most common condition for which a prolactin test is utilised. The closest and most reputable diagnostic facility in Mumbai, or any other region, can provide a prolactin test.
In Mumbai or any other place, a prolactin test can be performed to ascertain a person's prolactin levels. Making prolactin is the responsibility of the pituitary gland, a tiny structure located close to the base of the brain. Milk production is increased by prolactin both throughout pregnancy and immediately after birth. Prolactin levels often increase throughout pregnancy and after delivery. Men and non-pregnant women typically have modest levels. Prolactin levels that are greater than normal frequently indicate the presence of a prolactinoma, a form of pituitary gland tumor. When their prolactin levels are high, men and non-breastfeeding women can both make breast milk. Women who have high prolactin levels run the risk of experiencing infertility and irregular menstruation. It can reduce sex drive and give males erectile dysfunction.
If a doctor suspects that a patient's blood contains an excessive amount of prolactin, they may advise being tested in Mumbai or another area. Additionally, the symptoms can suggest a prolactin-related problem to the doctor. Men and women both experience symptoms, but they differ from one another.
For Women
The presence or absence of menopause will also influence a woman's symptoms. When a woman's monthly periods stop and she is no longer able to get pregnant, she has reached menopause. It typically begins for women around age 50. However, high prolactin levels in women who have not yet reached menopause may result in the following symptoms and signs:
For Men

Prolactin test results are frequently available 24 hours after the sample was taken in Mumbai and other locations. One can easily get their reports by visiting the official Max Lab website. The levels of prolactin in the blood may be low or high depending on the results. It is advised to bring this report to the doctor so they can accurately diagnose the condition and suggest additional treatments. This is because high prolactin levels can be an indication of a number of diseases.
