Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am experiencing a scanty period in the second phase of my menstrual cycle. My prolactin serum count is 27 during this phase, and I have noticed slight abdominal pain. Please help.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and can understand your concern.

Considering the information provided, I suggest to consult a gynecologist for a thorough assessment. A scanty period and slight abdominal pain may suggest various underlying issues, including hormonal imbalances or gynecological concerns. Moreover, a heightened prolactin level (27) could indicate potential medical conditions like a pituitary gland tumor or medication effects. Your healthcare provider should conduct necessary tests to identify the root cause and devise an appropriate treatment plan.

Your healthcare provider may suggest a combination of medications, lifestyle adjustments, and monitoring to manage symptoms and address underlying conditions. It is crucial to follow their guidance and communicate any concerns or questions closely. Your healthcare provider is the best source for personalized advice and treatment tailored to your situation.

I hope this helps.

Please revert in case of further queries.

Thank you.
