A lady with amenorrhea and galactorrhea, what is the cause of this?
Pituitary adenoma
Adrenal hyperplasia
70 alpha hydroxylase deficiency
None of above
In patients with both galactorrhea and amenorrhea, approximately two-thirds will have hyperprolactinemia; of those, approximately one-third will have a pituitary adenoma. A prolactin level as high as 150-200 ng/mL is almost always due to a pituitary adenoma.
