title: [Prolactin, hydrocortisone and corticosterone content of the peripheral blood of patients with the galactorrhea-amenorrhea syndrome].
abstract: The results are presented of studying 17 females with galactorrhea, including 11 with the persisting galactorrhea-amenorrhea-syndrome (PGAS) and 6 with the hypothalamic syndrome (neuroendocrine form) and galactorrhea. It was found that in persons with the hypothalamic syndrome a normal prolactin level and increased hydrocortisone and corticosterone concentrations in the peripheral blood are observed. In patients with the PGAS hyperprolactinemia is accompanied by qualitative and quantitative changes in the adrenocortical hormone content towards rising the corticosterone level.
