> What would your doctors think about letting you try an antiserotonin drug, like lisuride or ondansetron or bromocriptine, now that your prolactin was measured so high? I think the prolactin should be around 9 to 12. ## **High prolactin** > Either vitex or bromocriptine would probably stop it, but I think it's probably caused by mild [[hypothyroidism]], and that the best way to handle it would be with a [[thyroid]] supplement, and that would probably help your libido too. > Prolactin and TSH tend to increase together, so when you didn't need the prolactin to be high, the TSH--which might have been keeping your [[thyroid]] active despite high estrogen--could have decreased, letting the gland be suppressed by estrogen (and maybe [[PUFA]], from the nuts and any non-ruminant meats). Optimally, the TSH should be very low, but the [[thyroid]] gland should keep functioning without needing much stimulation. > [[Salt]] and [[thyroid]] usually lower it, but you might want to try a little vitamin B6; even a small amount, about 10 mg per day, can lower prolactin.
