My blood test showed elevated levels of prolactin. It is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland and is responsible for stuff like lactation. It explains why I haven't been getting my period. It's likely caused by the medication I'm on. I want to go off it ASAP but can't get into my Doc till May 25! Not that I miss my period, but it also causes enlarged breasts that "drip". Sorry if TMI. I'm hoping that will explain why my boobs are so gargantuan. They've NEVER been this big and it's really uncomfortable being a DDD when before I was a C cup. That's all. I have to wait to see an endocrinologist. Who knows how long that will take! LOL
