How does quinagolide affect serum prolactin levels?
Label:chem
Topic
Prolactin is a hormone that can be influenced by dopamine receptor agonists like quinagolide. Changes in prolactin levels can indicate the effectiveness of the treatment and its impact on the body's hormonal balance.
Answer
The study found that quinagolide significantly reduced serum prolactin levels during the first and second cycles of treatment. However, by the end of the fourth cycle, prolactin levels in the quinagolide group had returned to near baseline levels and were not significantly different from those in the placebo group.
