A prolactin test measures the amount of the hormone prolactin in your blood. High prolactin levels inhibit secretion of FSH. Therefore, if your prolactin levels are high, your ovulation may be suppressed. This is why women who are breastfeeding (and thus have high levels of prolactin) usually donât become pregnant.
Both estrogen and testosterone levels can be checked through simple blood tests. Medications can be used to help balance the levels of estrogen. This is worth considering for any man with high estrogen levels or with treatment of testosterone, as that may increase estrogen due to the enzyme aromatase.
