LOW PROLACTIN...

just read a article that said low prolactin can cause sexual disfunction nearly as much as high prolactin...I guess this makes sense, but I had always thought the lower the better....
 
In 2013 my prolactin tested out as 36. They sent me for a brain scan to make sure no benign tumor.

I was taking sodium D aspartic acid at the time, which highered it.

I took 99% L-dopa and it lowered to 5.

I thought the same, lower prolactin=higher sex drive.
 
The confusion came from the fact that Cabaser aka Dostinex aka cabergoline can actually improve libido and as a side has shown to cause multiple orgasms in men,

So then on the forums, this became somehow confused that taking Cabaser and lowering prolactin improves sex drive and can cause mutliple orgasms. When in reality it is merely that the drug has that effect combined with lowering prolactin. I don't think the mechanism is fully known but I am quite sure it is Dopamine relative.

Typically the median-low end would be desirable, but how do you feel? How is your libido? Fat loss ability? General mood? If you feel good, you may not want to attempt to alter your hormones.
