Craniotomy

In males, PRL attenuates LH secretion, leading to low testosterone levels, diminished libido & diminished sexual potency, oligospermia & lowered ejaculate volume up to 30% may have galactorrhea
In women, hyperprolactinemia leads to loss of pulsatile LH secretion, blunting of the LH peak, hypoestrogenism & anovulation, oligomenorrhea & amenorrhea, vaginal dryness, dyspareunia, loss of libido & infertility
