What is a Prolactin -Fasting Test in Mumbai ?
What is Prolactin -Fasting?
The prolactin fasting test measures the amount of prolactin in your blood. Prolactin is a hormone made by the pituitary gland. It is one of the most commonly ordered blood tests worldwide and plays a key role in both preventive screening and the investigation of liver disease.
What does Prolactin -Fasting measure?
It helps start and maintain milk production after childbirth. It also influences menstrual cycles, fertility, and sexual function. Abnormal prolactin levels can point to pregnancy, pituitary tumors, thyroid problems, certain medications, or kidney disease. Doctors use this test when someone has unexplained breast milk production, irregular periods, infertility, low sex drive, headaches, or vision changes.
What symptoms suggest Prolactin -Fasting may be needed?
A doctor may recommend Prolactin -Fasting when a patient reports fatigue or persistent low energy, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark amber or tea-coloured urine, pale or clay-coloured stools, upper right abdominal discomfort, nausea, loss of appetite, abdominal swelling, and unexplained weight loss. GetVisit makes testing convenient in Mumbai, with lab slots and home collection in Thane, Goregaon, and nearby areas.
How is Prolactin -Fasting performed?
A quick venous blood sample is all that is needed. At your chosen slot in Thane or Goregaon, Mumbai, the phlebotomist collects the sample with sterile equipment; most people feel only a momentary prick and there is no downtime afterwards.
How accurate is Prolactin -Fasting?
For Prolactin -Fasting, alcohol within 24 hours and strenuous exercise can temporarily raise liver values, so avoid both before testing. GetVisit's NABL labs in Thane and Goregaon, Mumbai process the sample on calibrated analysers with routine quality checks.
Are there any risks to Prolactin -Fasting?
Beyond a brief pinch, Prolactin -Fasting carries almost no risk. Keep the arm relaxed during the draw, press gently on the site afterwards, and avoid heavy lifting with that arm for about an hour.
Did you know?
Prolactin -Fasting also used to monitor treatment for pituitary tumors and to check recovery after surgery.

Why Take a Prolactin -Fasting Test in Mumbai ?
When does a doctor order Prolactin -Fasting?
Prolactin -Fasting is often ordered as part of a pituitary or hormone panel when patients have irregular periods, infertility, unexplained breast milk production, low sex drive, persistent headaches, or visual changes. Doctors use it to diagnose or monitor prolactinoma, hypothyroidism, medication effects, and other pituitary disorders.
Who should get Prolactin -Fasting done in Mumbai?
Mumbai has among India's highest documented rates of alcohol consumption, contributing to a significant alcoholic liver disease burden across all socioeconomic groups. Regular liver testing benefits: regular alcohol drinkers, individuals with BMI above 28, anyone on long-term medication including statins or anti-TB drugs, people with a personal or family history of hepatitis B or C, those with type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome, and all adults above 40 in annual preventive panels. In Mumbai, residents of Vashi, Santacruz, and similar areas with sedentary lifestyles and calorie-dense diets face particularly elevated metabolic liver risk.
What conditions can Prolactin -Fasting help diagnose?
High or low values can result from pregnancy, stress, drugs, sleep, or tumors; a family history of pituitary disease makes testing more important.
What do Prolactin -Fasting results mean?
Mildly elevated ALT or AST (2–3× normal): fatty liver, obesity, or medication effect , often reversible. Moderately elevated (3–10×): active viral hepatitis or drug toxicity , requires urgent investigation. Severely elevated (>10×): acute liver injury , a medical emergency. High bilirubin: liver processing failure, bile duct obstruction, or haemolysis. Low albumin: significant loss of liver synthetic function, seen in advanced cirrhosis or malnutrition.
How often should Prolactin -Fasting be repeated?
Adults with no liver risk factors and a previously normal result: annually. Patients with NAFLD or treated hepatitis: every 6 months. Patients on hepatotoxic medication: baseline before starting, then at 1 month, 3 months, and every 6 months during treatment. Patients with active liver disease: at intervals specified by their gastroenterologist.
What happens after Prolactin -Fasting results are ready?
Book a follow-up consultation after reviewing your results. GetVisit stores your reports alongside your previous test history, so your doctor sees your full health trend, not just today's snapshot. This longitudinal context significantly improves the clinical value of each repeat test.
