Her first prolactin level was 48.1 mug/l (reference <25 mug/l) at the time of referral to endocrinology, ~7 months before her diagnosis. (See Table 1 for the results of endocrine laboratory investigations.) A pituitary MRI revealed an '8x4 mm heterogeneous lesion with a fluid level' suggestive of a microprolactinoma with subacute hemorrhage (Figs 1 and 2).
