Abstract

Hyperprolactinemia is a hypothalamic-pituitary disorder caused by increased serum prolactin levels from a variety of causes. Increased secretion of prolactin (PRL) in the blood can lead to a variety of somatic disorders, including menstrual abnormalities such as scanty or absent menstruation, as well as breast engorgement and infertility. If left untreated, this condition can progress and lead to recurrent miscarriage, embryonic arrest, osteoporotic fractures, and other complications. In recent years, the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine has been used to effectively treat hyperprolactinemia. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the treatment of hyperprolactinemia using both traditional and modern medicine, to improve diagnosis and treatment options for this condition.
