On 22 male patients diagnosed as "functional hyperprolactinemia" (the Prolactin (PRL) basal value, was higher than the basal PRL means +/- 2 DS of a control group) we have measured the urinary excretion of Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) mainly produced by adrenal cortex. Our results haven't shown no difference in the urinary excretion of DHEA values in hyperprolactinemic patients has been documented.
