1 [Response of prolactin to thyrotrophin-RH(TRH) and chlorpromazine stimulation in the syndrome of hypogonadism and anosmia (author"s transl)]. Chlorpromazine prolactin Homo sapiens
2 Chlorpromazine administration caused an elevation of PRL to 43 and 30 ng/ml, respectively, in the two patients with a subnormal response to TRH, while the third case responded less than to TRH. Chlorpromazine prolactin Homo sapiens
3 In conclusion, the response to TRH of FSH and LH with lack of response to clomiphene supports the hypothalamic nature of the hypogonadism, while the response of PRL to both TRH and chlorpromazine, along with the normal levels of the remaining pituitary hormones (ACTH, TSH and STH) demonstrate the selectivity of the hypothalamic lesion whereby only gonadotrophin control is impaired. Chlorpromazine prolactin Homo sapiens
