What is a Prolactin -Fasting Test in Delhi ?
What is Prolactin -Fasting?
The prolactin fasting test measures the amount of prolactin in your blood. Prolactin is a hormone made by the pituitary gland. It is one of the most commonly ordered blood tests worldwide and plays a key role in both preventive screening and the investigation of liver disease.
What does Prolactin -Fasting measure?
It helps start and maintain milk production after childbirth. It also influences menstrual cycles, fertility, and sexual function. Abnormal prolactin levels can point to pregnancy, pituitary tumors, thyroid problems, certain medications, or kidney disease. Doctors use this test when someone has unexplained breast milk production, irregular periods, infertility, low sex drive, headaches, or vision changes.
What symptoms suggest Prolactin -Fasting may be needed?
A doctor may recommend Prolactin -Fasting when a patient reports fatigue or persistent low energy, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark amber or tea-coloured urine, pale or clay-coloured stools, upper right abdominal discomfort, nausea, loss of appetite, abdominal swelling, and unexplained weight loss. In Delhi, you can book this test online with home collection available in Preet Vihar, Paschim Vihar, and beyond.
How is Prolactin -Fasting performed?
Whether you visit a walk-in lab in Preet Vihar or book home collection in Paschim Vihar, Delhi, the process is the same. A trained phlebotomist performs a brief, sterile venipuncture, barcodes the sample for tracking, and dispatches it to the NABL lab. Your digital report is available in the GetVisit app the same day for most blood tests.
How accurate is Prolactin -Fasting?
For Prolactin -Fasting, alcohol within 24 hours and strenuous exercise can temporarily raise liver values, so avoid both before testing. GetVisit's NABL labs in Preet Vihar and Paschim Vihar, Delhi process the sample on calibrated analysers with routine quality checks.
Are there any risks to Prolactin -Fasting?
A blood draw for Prolactin -Fasting is very safe. Occasionally there is minor bruising or light-headedness; sitting for a couple of minutes afterwards at the Preet Vihar or Paschim Vihar, Delhi collection point usually prevents this.
Did you know?
Prolactin -Fasting also used to monitor treatment for pituitary tumors and to check recovery after surgery.
Prolactin -Fasting Test Preparation in Delhi
Fasting and diet:
An overnight fast of 8 to 12 hours is needed. Have your last meal the previous evening and take only water until the sample is collected. Carry a light snack for straight after.
What to bring:
Have your doctor's referral and photo ID ready; earlier reports for the same test are useful for tracking trends.
Medication:
Tell the collection staff about any prescription medicines, supplements, or herbal products you're using, and keep taking them unless advised otherwise.
Timing and slots:
An early slot works best, especially for fasting tests. Home collection is available across Malviya Nagar, Karol Bagh, and the rest of Delhi.

Why Take a Prolactin -Fasting Test in Delhi ?
When does a doctor order Prolactin -Fasting?
Prolactin -Fasting is often ordered as part of a pituitary or hormone panel when patients have irregular periods, infertility, unexplained breast milk production, low sex drive, persistent headaches, or visual changes. Doctors use it to diagnose or monitor prolactinoma, hypothyroidism, medication effects, and other pituitary disorders.
Who should get Prolactin -Fasting done in Delhi?
Delhi's Yamuna river is among India's most polluted urban waterways, contributing to seasonal hepatitis A and E outbreaks during monsoon flooding, particularly in areas with older water infrastructure including Shahdara, Dilshad Garden, Preet Vihar, and parts of Dwarka. Delhi also has among India's highest per-capita alcohol consumption rates, driving significant alcoholic and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease burden across all socioeconomic groups. NAFLD affects an estimated 25 to 35% of India's urban adults , the majority unaware. Regular liver testing in Delhi's residential areas including Vasant Kunj and Karol Bagh enables lifestyle intervention before irreversible scarring occurs. Patients recovering from hepatitis, those in alcohol recovery, and anyone with persistently unexplained fatigue also benefit from regular liver monitoring.
What conditions can Prolactin -Fasting help diagnose?
High or low values can result from pregnancy, stress, drugs, sleep, or tumors; a family history of pituitary disease makes testing more important.
What do Prolactin -Fasting results mean?
ALT above 56 U/L or AST above 40 U/L signals hepatocyte stress. The pattern matters: ALT greater than AST typically suggests NAFLD or viral hepatitis. An AST:ALT ratio above 2 points to alcoholic hepatitis. High ALP with normal transaminases suggests bile duct disease rather than liver cell damage. Low albumin alongside high bilirubin indicates serious loss of liver function.
How often should Prolactin -Fasting be repeated?
Adults with no liver risk factors and a previously normal result: annually. Patients with NAFLD or treated hepatitis: every 6 months. Patients on hepatotoxic medication: baseline before starting, then at 1 month, 3 months, and every 6 months during treatment. Patients with active liver disease: at intervals specified by their gastroenterologist.
What happens after Prolactin -Fasting results are ready?
Book a follow-up consultation after reviewing your results. GetVisit stores your reports alongside your previous test history, so your doctor sees your full health trend, not just today's snapshot. This longitudinal context significantly improves the clinical value of each repeat test.
