1) The sex cannot affect the prolactinoma tumour 2) I Pill cannot affect the prolactinoma tumour 3) drugs prescribed for prolactinoma will not affect her and it will help reduce prolactin levels and the symptoms due to it Consider eating more foods containing vitamin B6, such as potatoes, bananas, wild salmon, chicken and spinach. Also, according to a study published in "The Lancet," supplementation with zinc decreased prolactin levels in the participants. Foods high in zinc include shellfish, beef, turkey and beans.
