title: The safety of physiological estrogen plus progestin replacement therapy and with oral contraceptive therapy in women with pathological hyperprolactinemia.
abstract: In summary, E- replacement therapy may be administered to women with E deficiency, despite the presence of pathological hyperprolactinemia, with apparently no adverse effect on the underlying disease process. The concern of induction of rapid growth of an underlying pituitary adenoma was not substantiated.
