Hi I am schizophrenic and have high levels of prolactin. However i haven't had a period now for over 18 months. I am hoping to get my levels checked for premature ovulation cessation.

When i was hospitalised long term with psychosis and spent several months feeling as though i was over heating, a lot of the time, with and without panicking. i had one period that year.

I was psychotic and thought i had cancer and thought that my life would be prolonged if i lowered my body temperature and took many long cold showers for months.

I don't know what my other symptoms were except that i didn't sleep hardly at all, could easily have been the schizophrenia.

the next year i had a lot of very profuse night sweats for months and some quite bad back pain and my latest period.

I guess it is all circumstantial but are there any other symptoms that would suggest that i had premature ovary failure?

I know it is a simple test but i do get health anxiety. I also went on the pill after all this and had some withdrawl bleeding. this was for a short time, then i tried bio identical hormones which feel like they helped with the night sweats but she hasn't given me a blood test yet.

that was 9 months ago.

I was just wondering if anyone had experience knowlege or suggestions about this thing.

many thanks

katherine
