    Abstract:
    We present an infertility male with prolactin level of 37.5 ng/ml. The patient had pituitary microadenoma detected by Gd-DTPA enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). After bromocriptine was administrated for 4 months, the size of microadenoma decreased, and sperm density and mortality improved. His wife became pregnant after 6 months. Dynamic MRI is a useful modality for detection of pituitary microadenoma, and bromocriptine is also useful for treatment of oligospermic patients with marginal hyperprolactinemia.
