My prolactin is out of range. Anybody else with this? I read that it is caused by pituitary tumors? Could it be caused by something else? Does it matter? My GP seemed to sort of dismiss it. It was normal last time I had labs.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Not sure about the 'quickly' part, but any hormone out of range should be confirmed by multiple tests before considering any treatment.
This is an emotionally destructive condition, we all have it, let's be nice to each other.

I'd ask for a referral to an endocrinologist.
