✦ Synopsis

Plasma prolactin was measured in 10 patients with prostatic cancer during treatment with cyproterone acetate (300 mg/week i.m.) Prolactin was assayed during a six month period at weekly intervals during the first 4 weeks and then at monthly intervals. Orchiectomy was not carried out. After 6 months prolactin levels were elevated compared with pre-treatment levels. It is concluded from this study that cyproterone acetate interferes with prolactin secretion by the pituitary gland.
