Asked By:Monty13 in Birmingham, GB

I recently had breast augmentation in Nov 2021. I had 280 cc tear drop implants. I went to visit my GP last week due to having night sweats and beimg very irratable. My GP did a hormone blood test. My hormome levels are OK and the GP said I am not going through early menopause. My thyroid was also OK. The GP said i have high levels of prolactin in my blood. I haven't had a baby recently and i am not on any medication. Could my breast augmentation be the reason. I am 35
