Investigation Observed Value Unit Biological Reference Interval
Prolactin 13.70 ng/mL 4.79-23.3
(Serum,Electrochemiluminescence immunoassay First Trimester : 9.95 - 101
(ECLIA)) Second Trimester : 17.2 - 270
Third Trimester : 67.9 - 419
Interpretation:
• High level of prolactin is normal during pregnancy and after childbirth while the mother is nursing.
• High levels may also be seen in Prolactinoma, anorexia nervosa, hypothalamus disorders, hypothyroidism, Kidney disease,
Liver disease, polycystic ovary syndrome and other pituitary diseases and tumors.
• Low levels may indicate hypopituitarism but usually doesn’t require treatment.
Following is a suggested approach to Hyperprolactinaemia in females –
Serum Prolactin levels Interpretation Remarks
4.79 to 23.3 ng/ml Normal “Biological Reference Interval "
23.4 to 50 ng/ml Mild prolactin excess Often seen with physiological
conditions like: Physical/emotional
stress Exercise Pregnancy Lactation
This may not be associated with
clinical hyperprolactinaemia & needs
review after a month.""
51 to 75 ng/ml Moderate prolactin excess Often associated with: Clinical
hyperprolactinaemia (short luteal
phase,oligomennorrhea)
Hypothyroidism (often subclinical)
Macroprolactinaemia ""
Above 100 ng/ml Marked prolactin excess Often associated with:
Hyperprolactinaemia- hypogonadism
Amenorrhea Galactorrhoea
Hypothyroidism (often subclinical)
Macroprolactinaemia ""
Above 200 ng/ml Marked prolactin excess Often associated with Pituitary
adenoma requiring further workup High
levels may be repeated with tripooled
sample

Clinical Utility:
• An adjunct in the evaluation of menstrual irregularities.
• Helps in evaluation of pituitary tumors, amenorrhea, galactorrhea, infertility, and hypogonadism.
• Monitoring therapy of prolactin-producing tumors.
Note:
• Prolactin secretion from pituitary shows significant diurnal, episodic and cyclical variations and thus clinical evaluations may
require determinations in pooled multiple serial samples.
• Patients on Biotin supplement may have interference in some immunoassays. With individuals taking high dose Biotin
(more than 5 mg per day) supplements, at least 8-hour wait time before blood draw is recommended.
Associated Tests:
• Prolactin (Tripooled Sample) serum (P1009)

TSH T3 / FT3 T4 / FT4 Suggested Interpretation for the Thyroid Function Tests Pattern
Within Range Decreased Within Range • Isolated Low T3-often seen in elderly & associated Non-Thyroidal illness. In
elderly the drop in T3 level can be upto 25%.
Raised Within Range Within Range •Isolated High TSHespecially in the range of 4.7 to 15 mIU/ml is commonly
associated with Physiological & Biological TSH Variability.
•Subclinical Autoimmune Hypothyroidism
•Intermittent T4 therapy for hypothyroidism
•Recovery phase after Non-Thyroidal illness"
Raised Decreased Decreased •Chronic Autoimmune Thyroiditis
•Post thyroidectomy,Post radioiodine
•Hypothyroid phase of transient thyroiditis"
Raised or within Raised Raised or within •Interfering antibodies to thyroid hormones (anti-TPO antibodies)
Range Range •Intermittent T4 therapy or T4 overdose

anti-epileptics"
Decreased Raised or within Raised or within •Isolated Low TSH -especially in the range of 0.1 to 0.4 often seen in elderly &
Range Range associated with Non-Thyroidal illness

Decreased Decreased Decreased •Central Hypothyroidism
•Non-Thyroidal illness
•Recent treatment for Hyperthyroidism (TSH remains suppressed)"
