Galactorrhea Treatment in Lahore
Galactorrhea treatment in Lahore investigates milky breast discharge in women who are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and in men, at Diabesity Solutions under consultant endocrinologist Dr. Rizwan Niazi. This workup starts with a prolactin test and a check of every medicine you take, since several raise prolactin, with a pituitary MRI only when the level is clearly high. Its treatment is usually medical, and the right choice depends on which cause the tests find.

What Galactorrhea Means
Galactorrhea is a sign of a hormone problem, usually raised prolactin.
Prolactin is the hormone that drives milk production, and when it rises outside pregnancy and breastfeeding, discharge can follow. The discharge is not dangerous, and the prolactin-making tumours behind many cases are almost always benign.
In men, raised prolactin can bring breast discharge together with low sex drive, erectile problems and infertility. The causes and treatment are much the same as in women, and the clinic's male hormone care covers the rest.
Causes of Galactorrhea
A small benign pituitary tumour called a prolactinoma, medicines, an underactive thyroid and conditions of the hypothalamus are the four causes looked for.
A prolactinoma is the most common cause; the page on pituitary tumor treatment explains the gland itself. On the medicine side, antipsychotics, antidepressants, anti-sickness drugs and some blood pressure tablets can all push prolactin up as a side effect.
Hypothyroidism is on the list because TRH, the signal that rises when the thyroid is underactive, also stimulates prolactin. Problems in the hypothalamus, from illness or from medicines, can cut the dopamine that normally keeps prolactin down.
Symptoms That Come With Galactorrhea
Irregular or absent periods, lower sex drive and difficulty conceiving often come with it, and headaches or changes in side vision need prompt checking.
Raised prolactin lowers oestrogen, which unsettles the cycle and dampens libido. It also blocks ovulation, and fertility usually returns once the prolactin is treated. Headaches or loss of side vision can mean a larger prolactinoma pressing on the optic chiasm.
Galactorrhea Treatment in Lahore: Tests First
A fasting prolactin test comes first and is repeated if it is raised, and thyroid tests are arranged alongside it.
Visual field checks are added when a larger tumour is suspected.
How Galactorrhea Treatment in Lahore Works
The treatment matches the cause: a change of medicine, thyroid treatment or dopamine agonist tablets.
A medicine that is causing the discharge is changed or adjusted together with the doctor who prescribed it, and that alone often stops it. An underactive thyroid is treated, which settles the discharge. A prolactinoma is treated with dopamine agonist tablets, which shrink it and bring prolactin down in most patients; how the dose is set is explained on the high prolactin treatment page.
Surgery is kept for rare cases, when the tablets are not tolerated or the tumour is very large.
