A "PRL pooled 3 samples" test measures the average level of prolactin, a hormone produced by the pituitary gland, across three collected blood samples. Prolactin is crucial for lactation in women but also has various roles in men and non-pregnant women, including immune system regulation and reproductive health. The pooling of three samples helps account for fluctuations in prolactin levels, providing a more accurate assessment. Elevated prolactin levels, or hyperprolactinemia, can indicate conditions such as prolactinoma (a type of pituitary tumor), hypothyroidism, or side effects of certain medications. Low levels, though less common, can suggest pituitary dysfunction. The test aids in diagnosing hormonal imbalances and guiding appropriate treatments.
