High prolactin advice / experiences?

Hi everyone.... I just wondered if any of you have any advice or experience of high prolactin potentially causing anovulatory cycles?

I was diagnosed with high prolactin last year and have been taking medication for it for the last four weeks. My consultant warned me that it may make no difference at all to conception because I've always had regular periods.

But now I'm wondering whether I've even been ovulating at all. Usually my cycles go like this: Day 11 I start getting high estrogen reading which I continue to get for around 10 days before I get a peak LH surge around day 21, and then get period any time between day 26 and day 35. However this month: day 11 I got a low reading on ovulation stick, and today, day 12 I got a peak (no high estrogen inbetween) and have had a pinky discharge and some pain which I never usually experience. Could that be a sign of ovulation? It's really annoying as we've not DTD in the last few days because we're so used to getting the peak reading later in the month. So I'm probably too late now this month anyway. Agh!

I also had several blood tests last year which showed low progesterone towards the end of my cycle.

Does anyone else have any experience of this?
