Popis: Twenty-five women with fibrocystic breast disease were investigated in a double-blind study using treatment with bromocriptine (5 to 7.5 mg/day for 3 months) or placebo. Estradiol and progesterone measurements did not show any changes before, during or after treatment. Serum prolactin levels were reduced during the use of bromocriptine. Histologic evaluation demonstrated a decrease of epithelial hyperplasia and arrest of the cystic dilation picture after treatment with bromocriptine.
