Male Organ Function and Medications That Increase Prolactin
by John Dugan OwnerMale
organ health and male organ function are often linked, with a healthy manhood
usually more likely to have fewer issues with male organ function.
However, there can be factors which impede male organ function which come
about even when a man is taking every step possible to ensure the health of his
favorite organ. For example, sometimes medications taken for health issues
unrelated to the member may still have some impact on the manhood. This can be
the case with medications which, directly or indirectly, increase the amount of
prolactin in the body.
What is prolactin?
Sometimes called luteotropoin, prolactin is a naturally occurring
hormone. It occurs in both men and women, but it generally appears in much
lower doses in men than in women. One of its primary purposes is to enable
women to produce milk for babies. It also can serve to help balance levels of
hormone and estrogen in both genders.
In men, a certain level of prolactin is therefore a good thing.
But if prolactin levels are raised too high, a situation known as
hyperprolactinemia results. And that’s not so good. If a man has too
much prolactin, it is likely to cause the body to stop producing as much
hormone. Diminished hormone levels are often associated with a diminished
sensual drive. Sometimes they can also negatively impact tumescence function.
However, when too much prolactin is the factor behind this hormone
decrease, the effects may be more nuanced. Many men in this situation complain
that they still have an interest in coupling, but that when they engage
in the activity, their manhood is not as firm as it needs to be. This often
leads to sensual situations without releasing seed, which can be frustrating,
or to needing extra stimulation in order to reach a happy ending.
Hyperprolactinemia also can result in gynecomastia, in which male
breast growth is increased substantially.
Medications
Excess prolactin can come about rom several causes. It often is a
side effect of medications being used to treat other conditions.
Risperidone, which is used for treating autism or for helping to
control disruptive behavior, was found in one study to raise prolactin levels
in 49% of patients taking it. Metoclopromide, which is commonly used for
gastrointestinal disorders, including gastroesophageal reflux disorder (GERD),
also has been associated with raised prolactin levels.
Phenothiazine (aka PTZ) is an organic compound, derivatives of
which are used in several medications. They are most prominently used to treat
psychotic conditions. (It also used to be popularly used as an
insecticide.)
Treatment
If a man believes that he has hyperprolactinemia, he should raise
the possibility with his doctor and have his levels checked. If prolactin
levels are significantly raised, the physician should the n determine if the increase
is likely due to medication. If so, the patient and doctor should discuss the
pros and cons of possible alternative medications. There also are some
medications which are used to lower prolactin levels; if these medications are
safe to use in conjunction with the medication which is raising prolactin
levels, this may be a viable route to take.
Excess prolactin may be the cause of male organ function issues,
but it’s possible that a healthy member may be somewhat less affected.
Therefore, daily use of a first rate male organ health crème (health
professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil,
which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) makes sense. A man
should take his time and select only the best such crème. For example, since
prolactin may cause some diminishment of manhood sensation, use of a crème with
;l-carnitine may be beneficial. L-carnitine is an amino acid with
neuroprotective qualities which can help maintain proper member sensitivity.
The best crème will also include a range of important vitamins, including A,
B5, C, D and E, to help boost male organ health.
