Prolactin levels, please help.

[serbyte]

I dont know exactly what it is, but it seems to cause gyno and low sex drive. I have had a low sex drive for about a year and a half, and my test levels are normal, i got them checked this summer. Also, after doing 2 weeks of var and coming off, i started to get symtoms of gyno. Right now i am taking Nolva to combat those symptomes.

What could raise your prolactin levels, and what could be used to lower them?

Can someone explain what prolactin is, or post a link of a good article.

I am no expert but will give some comments on what I believe to be true.

Have you used Deca or fina?
Both are thought to increase prolactin.

In general, estrogen can increase prolactin release while androgens will cause a decrease in prolactin release.

Is your T/E ratio out of wack? Even if your T levels are good, if your E levels are really high then this could cause problems.

To lower prolactin you could use bromo or dostinex.
