A level at 6.1 is normal.
I've read (or seen) Crisler/Saya/et al., reference Shippen treating Prolactin, as high, with a result of 5.
Prolactin seems to be one of the outliers in values...it's very very hard to pin down what is high, and what is low.
I did try to raise mine having tested @ 4 and 5 and Dr Saya prescirbed "Reglan", (check the spelling). Using it 30 days I retested @ 11 but with no improvement up or down, I abandoned it further.
