Abstract

Background: Hyperprolactinemia has been reported to be associated with abnormalities of carbohydrate metabolism. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of hyperprolactinemia and bromocriptine (Brc) treatment on endothelial function, insulin sensitivity and inflammatory markers in pre-menopausal women.
