| Methods: | Ligandenassays → Chemilumineszenz Mikropartikel Immunoassay (CMIA) | Reference range | Women: Follicular phase: < 10 µg/l Luteal phase: < 16 µg/l Males: 3,3-15,2 µg/l |
| Indication | Women: Galactorrhea, ovoluatory cycle disturbances, androgenisation, corpus luteum insufficiency. Males: Hypogonadism, gynecomastia Both genders: Hypothyreosis (TSH secretion induces prolactin secretion), pitiuary adenomas (esp. prolactinoma) |
