my wife and I are trying to have a baby
but it has been three years since a
miscarriage she had within her two months
of pregnancy. Since then we have had
unprotected sex and had no luck. My issue
is this, I went to the urologist for a
check up and I was found with a high
prolactin and so the doc sent me to have
an mri done and these are the result if
anyone could understand them and let me
know if it is something to worry about or
not.
Mri test was done for the pituitary
prolactinoma because I have a high
prolactin in my blood test.
My results state that I have a pituitary
gland measuring 5mm and most consistent
with a microadenoma. It also states that
I have a giant cisterna magna or arachnoid
cyst which measures 4cm.
The impression also stated:
1. Mri finding most consistent with a
microadenoma in the right side of the
pituitary gland which measure 5mm.
2. Suspected arachnoid cyst versus giant
cisterna magna in the posterior fossa with
a measurement of 4cm.
I am concerned about the results and I
thought I could have someone explain to me
the finding in simplest terms. I hope it
isn't anything to worry about. Thank you

I'm sorry. I would have absolutely no
idea what any of that means. When are
you supposed to hear back from your
doctor?

Thanks for your reply and yes I just came
back from the doc’s office and he said
it normal and nothing to worry about.
Now does anyone know what is a recommend
way to get my wife pregnant medically
because we have been trying unprotected
sex for years now and nothing has
happened? I have heard of an implant the
doctor does with ones sperm?

Has your wife had any basic testing done
yet? Are her cycles regular and has she
tried charting her temp to verify if and
when she is ovulating? I would suggest
she see a doctor if you have been trying
for years with no luck. There are some
basic tests that they can do before you
have to start any medical intervention.
Some problems can be corrected realatively
easily.
