Asked for male, 33 years old from Hyderabad

I am 33 years old, planning to conceive. Got miscarriage in last year may, doctor advised to take folvite 0.5 mg tablet for 2 months before I plan for pregnancy. Recently doctor advised blood tests and in that tests it is observed that I have more prolactin. So doctor advised to take cabgolin 0.25 mg tablet for 4 weeks. What are the side effects of cabgolin? Can I take cabgolin tablet with folvite tablet? Pls help me with this question.

Taking folic acid 1 mg orally will prevent fetal neural tract defects. Cabergoline will control hyperprolactinemia and facilitate ovulation. Your doctor's advice is perfect and should be followed. Wish you a happy pregnancy soon.

Asked for female, 37 years old from Pune

I wanted to stop breastfeeding to my 15 months old baby. I already have hypothyroidism. I was advised by the doctor to take cabgolin 0.5 medicine twicevwithin a gap of three days. But as soon as I took first dose, I had severe headache n pain in breasts with dizziness n chills. My breasts were engorged and started having lumps. I went back to doctor n they had to give me some antibiotics and painkillers. After 24 hours, the headache is still there and after expressing milk, breasts are fine, still heavy. I am really scared to take the last dose of cabgolin and do not trust the doctor at all as they really did not treat me well. In the first instance, doctor just advised cabgolin without having any look at my breasts or even touching me, when I had clearly told her, I am having engorged breasts and it's paining as I haven't fed my baby in last 24 hours and to give some medicine to ease the pain. Please advise if I should take another dose of cabgolin or not. Don't want to go through that hell feeling again.

Hi. I understand what you are going through. I wound like to tell you to first get treated for breast engorgement & simultaneously get stop feeding. Wear bra little tight than normal, express out all the milk before taking cabergoline. Do not handle the breast either by expressing or feeding the baby after taking the cabergoline dosage.

Hello,
It may so happen that complete breast milk suppression did not happen.
Avoid any form of breast stimulation,
get prolactin level done, and if still high need to take cabergoline once more.

Delay or irregular periods can happen because of the hormonal problem for which cabergoline is given.
Inform gynecologist treating you.

Asked for female, 22 years old from Kolkata

I am 22 year old girl. I took pcod pills from 2017-2018 and then joined gym leaving pills behind but then again during the location in 2020, I started taking pcod pills till february 2021. Then I stopped it and went to the gym and did cycling again. I was having hair fall even after that so I consulted my gynaecologist and she told me to get my hormones tested and visit an endocrinologist. I got my hormones tested everything was normal except prolactin which was 60. I went to the doctor and he gave me another prolactin test peg after precipitation which came 110. So he then recommended me to do an mri. But since again I have a lockdown now and everything's closed. My family doctor told me to continue my pcod pills as prolactin can also get high due to pcod. So I started taking regestrone cr 10 mg and normoz since last 3-4 days and after 2 days from starting the pills, I started having breast tenderness. I consulted an online doctor and he told me to have cabgolin 0.5 twice a week for 8 weeks as this breast tenderness generally happens for high prolactin and also can happen as a side effect to regestrone cr. What should I do? This breast tenderness is very discomforting. Please help, please.

If you are apprehensive about taking the cabergoline, you can try some home remedies like ice pack or hot fomentation and wearing a sports bra. If still not relieved, then take the cabergoline. Continue excercises at home, take a balanced diet along with the pills. Get an mri done once the lockdown is lifted.

Cabgolin is not prescribed during pregnancy. After treating your hyper-prolactineamia, you can plan for pregnancy. Take folic acid tablets and dark green vegetables in your diet. I am available for online consultation,
