I am an unmarried woman. I got nipple discharge and I consulted a gynaecologist. They suggested blood test and ultrasound scanning. The blood test result showed high prolactin 35 ng/ ml and prominent fibroglandular tissues with tdlu in mammosonography. I need to know the reason for high prolactin and the density of the breast and it's risk in future.

Hello, High prolactin levels are due to excessive breast handling during sex or self pleasure practices, or there can be microprolactinomas in pituitary gland of brain which can cause high prolactin levels- suspected by frequent central headaches.
