[Endocrinological aspect of galactorrhea and lactation in relation to the cytology of breast secretion].

The concentration of prolactin in the plasma and the cytologic smears of the mammary extraction were analysed in 67 patients with galactorrhea. In 38 patients galactorrhea was couple with amenorrhea. Out of 67 patients with galactorrhea, 32 had hyperprolactinemia (68.6 +/- 14.4 ng/ml) along with low estrogen (14.6 +/- 3.8 ug/24 hours) and aonadotropin (FSH 6.2 +/- 2.0, LH 8.5 +/- 2.6 mIU/ml) values. In 48 out of 67 patients galactorrhea seceded under the therapy of Parlodel (bromocriptine). Out of 13 patients waiting pregnancy, 9 showed a restitution ofa the ovulatory cycle and 2 became pregnant. In the group of parturients it proved possible to suppress ablactation by estrogenic-and androgenic preparations (Ablacton) without a decrease in the prolactin concentration, while Parlodel brought about ablactation with a decrease of the prolactin concentration to normal values as early as 24 hours following the application of its first dose. In 6 patients with hyperprolactinemia and low estrogaen and gonatropin values an increase in the concentration of LH and FSH after 100 micrograms LH--RH i. m. was observed. In the cytologic smears of the mammary excretion there were no atypical or malignant cells.
