Why are Dopamine Agonists Important in Gynecology?
In gynecology, dopamine agonists are primarily used to treat conditions related to hyperprolactinemia, a state of elevated prolactin levels in the blood. Elevated prolactin can lead to conditions such as galactorrhea (unintended milk production), amenorrhea (absence of menstruation), and infertility. By reducing prolactin levels, dopamine agonists can help manage these conditions effectively.
