My appologies, wasn't thinking about our members who are not from a
medical background. In a previous post, I mentioned a microadenoma as
of possible cause of painful MER. A microadenoma is a small (<10mm
diameter)tumor of the pituitary gland which causes prolactin
hypersecretion. Symptoms are: abnormal menstruation,infertility,
galactorrhea(too much milk), decreased libido, and vaginal dryness.
Parlodel is commonly used as treatment.
Sorry for the medicaleze.
