Hi there,
Welcome to HCM,

Since you have already strated Cabergoline (dostinex) and also that it is the newer and has less side effects you should continue it till your prolactin levels decrease. Do net plan pregnancy till your prolactin levels decrease to less than 30 and your symptoms are under control.
I know you must be very anxious to conceive but if you conceive before the prolactin levels are normal it can create problems during pregnancy.
Repeat prolactin in 3 months to know the response.

Hope this helps.
Regards
