Prolactin Test Price in Noida

Prolactin (PRL) testing can be used to determine the level of prolactin in the blood. A prolactin test is typically used to identify prolactinoma, a tumour in the pituitary gland that causes infertility in women and decreased sex drive in men. In Noida or any other city, one can visit the closest and most reputable diagnostic facility to get a prolactin test.

Overview of the Prolactin Test 

In Noida or any other city, a prolactin test can be used to detect a person's prolactin levels. The pituitary gland, a tiny structure found near to the base of the brain, is responsible for producing prolactin. Milk production is increased by prolactin both during pregnancy and after birth. Prolactin levels are typically raised during pregnancy and after giving birth. Low amounts are typically present in men and non-pregnant women. 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. Infertility and irregular menstruation are potential effects of high prolactin levels in women. It can cause erectile dysfunction in men and lower sex drive.

When is the Prolactin Test Prescribed?

If a person's doctor suspects excessive levels of prolactin in their blood, they may advise being tested in Noida or any other city. Additionally, the symptoms may suggest a prolactin-related problem to the doctor. However, the symptoms that men and women experience are distinct.

For Women

The symptoms of a woman will also depend on whether or not she has gone through menopause. When a woman's menstrual cycles stop and she can no longer conceive, she enters menopause. It frequently begins for women around the age of 50. However, in women who have not yet gone through menopause, excessive prolactin may result in the following symptoms:

  • Breast tenderness
  • Irregular menstrual cycles
  • Premature menopause (a condition where periods stops before the age of 40)
  • Infertility
  • Unusual & stubborn acne

For Men

The excess of prolactin in males results in these symptoms:

  • Low sex drive
  • Breast enlargement
  • Nipple discharge
  • Decreased body hair

Time Required for Prolactin Test Reports + Next Steps

Results of prolactin tests are normally available in Noida and other cities 24 hours after the sample was taken. One can easily acquire their reports by visiting the official Max Lab website. Prolactin levels in the blood can either be low or high, depending on the results. High levels of prolactin can indicate a number of diseases, thus it is recommended to take this report to the doctor so that he or she can accurately identify the sickness and offer additional therapies.
