Twelve female patients (mean age 60 years, range 41--74) with euthyroid multinodular goitre and a flat TRH test (median delta TSH 0.9 muIU/ml, range 0--3.5) had normal prolactin responses to TRH (median data prolactin 48 ng/ml, range 6--115). The results are comparable with those in euthyroid patients receiving full substitution doses of thyroid hormone without increasing T3 and/or T4 levels beyond the normal range.
