      Weight Control what a pain for me these last 20 years. Your hromone(prolactine)is telling your body it is breast feeding. And if you where breast feeding you would be using so many calories a day it would not be a porblem. You can not go on too tight of a diet your body will shut down and hold on to what you have. Over the years I have learned exercise, eating right and sleep all affect energy and hormone levels. make it a priority. Non stressfull exercise done for enjoyment and health (walk daily)Eat a healthy balance of food, lots of fruits and veg. Try to get 8 hours of sleep a day. Don't be too hard on yourself, and accept the fact that you have to be more disciplined about your mental and physical health then other people in your life.

      YES, and that is what you need to talk to your PCP about. Just 1/2 to 1 pill of the bormo will take care of that for you until you know what is going on. There is no need for you to be in pain.

      Sorry, I know you wanted a answer on what is going on. Sound like you need to get with you PCP and get your blood pressure under control. Was your Endo a pituitary specialist? Did he check all of your ptituitary hormones? I can so understand the boob thing. I started out as a C. Now I go back and forth from D to a DD every month. My husband does not mind but, I sure do. And my pituitary has been at a normal level for years. I do know that pituitary tumors are slow moving it took 8 - 10 years for tumor to get to 10mm. But if you have high prolactine why can they not put you on bromocriptine. To help until they find the problem. My sister took it to dry up her breats after giving brith. So I do not see a problem. Talk with you PCP. Good Luck.
