Abstract
The incidence of hyperprolactinemia in women peaks during the 3rd–4th decade and then greatly decreases after the menopause. It has been linked to secondary osteoporosis, weight gain and insulin resistance, which can be ameliorated following medical treatment. Although relatively rare, prolactinomas can be observed in post-menopausal women.
