Can you get pregnant with hyperprolactinemia?

Can women also get hyperprolactinemia during pregnancy? Many people probably think that women who do not give birth or breastfeed have a higher chance of developing hyperprolactinemia. In fact, we cannot ignore the fact that women can also get hyperprolactinemia during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Maternal hyperprolactinemia, also known as gestational hyperprolactinemia, refers to hyperprolactinemia diagnosed during pregnancy or within 1 year after delivery. So, what are the causes of hyperprolactinemia in pregnant women?

Because hyperprolactinemia is a tumor that responds to hormones, the increased levels of estrogen and progesterone in the blood circulation during pregnancy will accelerate tumor growth and metastasis. These estrogen and progesterone act on the capillaries to increase and congestion, and many expectant mothers eat a lot of high-hormone tonics during pregnancy, which accelerates tumor growth. In addition, some obstetricians do not pay enough attention to physical examinations, which can easily delay diagnosis.

Therefore, early diagnosis and timely treatment are key factors in improving the prognosis of hyperprolactinemia during pregnancy. Doctors remind that health care during pregnancy should never be neglected. Patients with hyperplasia or lobular nodules before pregnancy should pay more attention to regular checkups during pregnancy. In addition, the diet during pregnancy should be diversified and scientific, and you should not blindly follow the trend of eating tonics.
