Macroprolactin over time: Is there any point in rechecking it in people with a persistently elevated serum prolactin? (2024)
Journal Article
Livingston, M., Hashmi, S. F., Ramachandran, S., Laing, I., & Heald, A. (in press). Macroprolactin over time: Is there any point in rechecking it in people with a persistently elevated serum prolactin?. Clinical Endocrinology, 100(5), 450-458. https://doi.org/10.1111/cen.15051

Objective and Design
Macroprolactinemia may influence the interpretation of serum prolactin levels—a recognised phenomenon since 1981. The degree of macroprolactinaemia over time is less well described. We determined how macroprolactin status (based... Read More about Macroprolactin over time: Is there any point in rechecking it in people with a persistently elevated serum prolactin?.
