ABSTRACT
A 45-year-old woman presented with worsening of migraine without aura. Laboratory test revealed hyperprolactinemia, but brain magnetic resonance imaging was normal. She had no known etiologies of hyperprolactinemia. Headache improved together with normalization of serum prolactin level after administration of bromocriptine. However, withdrawal of bromocriptine caused elevation of serum prolactin level and worsening of migraine headache. She repeated similar pattern of improvement and aggravation two times more. We suggest that hyperprolactinemia may cause aggravation of migraine headache.
