Galactorrhea and hyperprolactinemia associated with chest wall injury

JE Morley, M Dawson, H Hodgkinson and WJ Kalk

A 48 year old premenopausal woman presented with galactorrhea and amenorrhea associated with chest wall burns. Basal serum prolactin levels were raised, and were further elevated by the administration of L-dopa, chlorpromazine and TRH. Intercostal nerve block and bromocryptine treatment reduced prolactin levels to normal, but did not noticably reduce milk secretion.
