Hello
ive just got bloods back after being on clomid 12.5mg Eod for 3 weeks and my testosterone has increased but I'm concerned about my prolactin level.
I have no libido or random erections so I think this may be the cause.
Can clomid increase prolactin? What can I do to lower it? If clomid is a cause should I stop?
I've read stress can cause it to increase, I've recently broken up with my girlfriend after a stressful 4 months so maybe this could also be a cause, Thoughts?
Test results - ( my thyroid labs are normal, I had them done 3 weeks ago)
