Resumen
Family physicians have an important role in diagnosing and managing prolactin-secreting adenomas during pregnancy. Outcomes with microprolactinomas can be excellent, and these small tumours can be managed safely by family physicians. Macroprolactinomas, however, have a higher risk of enlarging during pregnancy, and patients with macroprolactinomas should be encouraged to discuss management with their family physicians before conception. These patients should be referred to specialists.
