The prognosis for amenorrhea caused by high sex hormone prolactin is usually good after active treatment, and can be treated with medication and surgery as prescribed by the doctor, but it may recur.
Prolactin is one of the sex hormones, and high sex hormones are often considered to be hyperprolactinemia, which is a common clinical pathophysiological condition. Usually, amenorrhea caused by high prolactin can be cured, and the patient’s prolactin level can be restored to normal, so menstruation can return to normal.
Patients need to apply bromocriptine mesylate, alpha dihydroergocriptine, and cabergoline for dopamine receptor agonist therapy as prescribed by the doctor, or quinagolide if the patient is intolerant to bromocriptine mesylate. For patients who have pituitary tumors that do not respond well to medication, tumor resection needs to be considered.
Although the prognosis of this disease is good after active treatment, there is a high recurrence rate, and some patients may need long-term medication.
To summarize, patients with high prolactin need to go to the hospital for follow-up on time and cooperate with the doctor for active treatment. The above medications should be used in accordance with the doctor’s instructions.
