True about prolactin is all except
Hyperprolactinemia → reflex increase in dopamine → acts on dopamine receptors on ovaries
→ Disrupts Folliculogenesis → Amenorrhea.
Primary hypothyroidism is associated with mild elevation in serum prolactin
Normal prolactin level is less than 20ng/mL in non-pregnant women
Hyperprolactinema causes reflex increase in central dopamine levels which causes Menorrhagia
Dopamine agonists decrease prolactin secretion
