What is a Prolactin Blood Test?
Prolactin is a pituitary hormone and is a glycoprotein
Prolactin contributes to the increased growth and differentiation of the alveoli (milk producing tissues) and also influences differentiation of ductal structures. High levels of prolactin during pregnancy and breastfeeding also increase insulin resistance, increase growth factor levels (IGF-1) and modify lipid metabolism in preparation for breastfeeding.During lactation, prolactin is the main factor maintaining tight junctions of the ductal epithelium and regulating milk production through osmotic balance.
Prolactin PROmotes LACTation i.e. it makes breasts produce milk.
The hormone prolactin is most noted for its regulation of milk production in female mammals. Men with decreased levels of prolactin can have lower sperm production.
Yes. Prolactin is released following masturbation and sex. Anecdotally, masturbation and sex have been linked to Acne. I believe it is this hormone (also responsible for milk production) and not Testerone that causes Acne.
