Tq

High prolactin can stop periods. Bromocriptine needs time — periods may return in 6–12 weeks, not just 1 month. What you should do now: Continue bromocriptine as prescribed (don’t stop suddenly). Repeat blood test: prolactin level after 6–8 weeks. Check thyroid (TSH) if not done — thyroid problems raise prolactin. Reduce stress, sleep well, avoid tight breast stimulation. If no period after 2–3 months, doctor may Adjust dose Change medicine (e.g., cabergoline) Do further tests if needed
