“Why Prolactin Can Ruin Your Day”
Most people have never heard of the peptide hormone, Prolactin. The name seems innocent enough, but this
little neuroendocrine peptide can give you a whole of host of problems that you never thought possible.
Prolactin’s primary job in the body is to aid in breast development, and, after pregnancy, Prolactin produces
breast milk. Now if you are a man reading this article, you may be asking yourself, “Why would I have Prolactin
problems?” Well, unfortunately, men and women are basically the same human template, and Prolactin
production is part of life for both genders. Basically, 3 hormones play roles in both male and female bodies:
Testosterone, Progesterone and Estrogen. It’s the varying amounts of these hormones, as well as the ratio they
are produced in that really affects a great deal of the physiological and endrocrinological (hormonal) differences
between men and women.
So what effect does Prolactin, the peptide hormone, have on these three primary hormones in the human body?
Prolactin production is adjusted in the body by all three of these hormones, however, Estrogen is the primary
mastermind behind Prolactin production. Prolactin is basically a female hormone, but it does serve a purpose in
men, though its purpose may not be considered beneficial by most men. For example, primary surges in
Prolactin occurs after orgasm in males to let the male body know its “done”. In fact, the surge in Prolactin
insures this feeling by immediately reducing sexual desire as well as erectile response. Basically, Prolactin acts
as an “off” switch -- not exactly a beneficial function in most men’s minds, though surely there are women that
are quite thankful for this biological hiatus. That being said, high Prolactin levels are a common cause of
impotence and loss of sexual desire in both men and women.
Sex is just one area where Prolactin may have negative effects on the body and mind. In addition to this,
Prolactin also demands increases in food intake -- this is why the urge to raid the fridge after coitus is not
uncommon. Studies in animals indicate that high Prolactin can increase food intake by as much as 20%. Studies
with Prolactin suppressors in humans have shown significant decreases in food intake and fat loss, even where
Prolactin levels are not considered to be “elevated”.
For men, Prolactin presents an additional issue. It can cause and aggravate 'gynecomastia, which is the clinical
term for female breast development in men. Prolactin’s effects on 'gynecomastia are worse when there is
existing breast tissue from puberty and/or when there is high level of Estrogen present already. Also, as
mentioned before, when high levels of Estrogen are present in this case, production of Prolactin in the body is
further encouraged, thus compounding problems at hand and making the ordeal cyclic.

Macro your thoughts on dostinex?


very effective prolactin suppressor, though reccomend cabaser (generic cabergoline/dostinex made in the same factory but A HELL OF A LOT cheaper).
 
Macro, what is the typical dosage for guys like us that are attempting to control prolactin levels while using nandrolone. I just started a cycle and have Cabaser on hand, but am unsure of the dosages and frequency of dosing?

Thanks in advance.
 
prevention .5mg e3d.
treatment frontload 1mg/d for 3-5 with taper to .5mg ed then eod then go to prevention dose.
 
Is there a way to test and correct the high prolactin surge after orgasm? I feel as thou I am totally unintrested in sex 100% after ejaculating and it stays like that for a very long time.
 
finding wet spots on your shirt around the nips will ruin your day, guranteed

using dopaminergics, including short acting and dopamine modulators.

cabaser
bromocriptine
selegiline
l-dopa
Neurogenex (may be used with any of the above or alone)
vitex (at least in women- less research on men)
macuna pruriens (l-dopa)

note- staying cool during coitus MAY decrease the surge
 
can casaber or selegine increase hair loss. Also why is it that my body does this when I rarely hear of other men feeling this way so young.
 
i took casaber before and it didnt do much i dont think. ill try it again soon and see what happens. im curious what if i ejacualte before i go and get my blood taken? would that work lol
 
Good thead;
How long dose one have to take caber?
Forever,,,just after cycle...dose the prolatin levels clear up and not return or is it a constant mantiance
