Prolactin levels when TTC

I have a pituitary tumour, found out in 3rd trimester. In some people prolactin hormone levels become a problem with this tumour, therefore they call it prolactinoma. I don't know if I have the prolactinoma specifically. All I know is I have a pituitary tumour.

The thing is, I was never screened for my prolactin levels by anyone when TTC, I feel angry and sad, why was I not screened at any appointment? Sad. Did your clinic test you for this? Did there have to be a special reason why you had to get your prolactin tested during TTC or was your prolactin automatically tested as part of the normal testing?

Thank you, I will appreciate your answers.

@dreamingdream i did get tested for this by GP when checking my fertility during blood tests. My prolactin came up high initally and when retested it was showing normal.

Have they offered you treatment?
