title: [A case of male infertility caused by drug-induced hyperprolactinemia].
abstract: A 46-year-old man complaining of infertility was referred to our hospital. He was diagnosed with oligozoospermia, asthenozoospermia and hyperprolactinemia probably induced by sulpiride for depression, because semen quality gradually improved after cessation of sulpiride administration. Five months after the cessation, his serum prolactin level declined to the normal level, and his wife achieved spontaneous pregnancy.
