  schema:description "A prolactinoma is a pituitary tumour of the cells that make prolactin, the milk hormone; it is the commonest hormone-producing pituitary tumour and causes missed periods, infertility, milk production or, in men, low testosterone. Almost uniquely among tumours it is treated first with a tablet, cabergoline, which shrinks it in most people; surgery is kept for those the drug fails."@en ;
