Hyperprolactinemia

Hyperprolactimia is the most common disease of the pituitary gland, which is characterized by galactorrhea and hypogonadism. If the patient has colostrum and amenorrhea at the same time, it is called colostrum-amenorrhea syndrome, if it occurs postpartum, it is called Chiari-Fromeel syndrome; those with pituitary tumors, namely Forbes-Albright syndrome; It is called del Castillo syndrome. The main difference between the above syndromes is pituitary tumors and no pituitary tumors. The other differences are only in the time of disease.
