Case History: A 29‐year‐old woman with a 4‐year history of infertility was referred for IVF treatment. As she had become tearful and depressed, her primary care physician had prescribed an antidepressant. She had no other medical history of note. Menarche was at the age of 14, and her periods had been normal and regular up until 3 years ago, when she developed oligomenorrhea. Blood tests carried out at her first clinic visit showed serum prolactin of 200 μg/L (4000 mIU/L). Her follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and tubal assessment were normal. A seminal fluid analysis was also normal.
