Resumen

Female patients with hyperprolactinaemia who pass through the menopause have a significant chance of normalizing their prolactin levels. Females who pass through pregnancy may have a higher chance of normalizing their prolactin levels. The menopause is an indication for reassessment of the need to continue to treat hyperprolactinaemia and microprolactinoma.
