Question : Hi doctor Elona,
I'm fine now after the increase the dosage of the dostinex tablets to .75 mg twice a week(1.5mg),
the prolactin dropped after 3 weeks to 28ng/mL, which I think it's almost normal range and I hope will drop more in next few weekS.
Hello Doctor Elona,
Are still thinking that the dostnex will not be affective anymore ?
Thank you

Detailed Answer:
Hello

You feel fine and this is the most important thing for a doctor.

Now,the level of prolactin is within the normal range.This is a perfect result and this means that the carbegoline(Dostinex) has been effective.

Let me know the result of your prolactinemia after a couple of weeks.
I m curious to know the evolution of your situation.

Anyway i suggets to talk with your treating endocrinologist about the definitive treatement of your condition.

Hope This is helpful.
Wish you all the best.
