Abstract
A significant number of patients with hyperprolactinemia have macroprolactinemia, a condition characterized by the preponderance of big-big prolactin with normal levels of free prolactin. As macroprolactin does not have biologic activity, such patients do not require further investigations or treatment for hyperprolactinemia. The case of a patient with hyperprolactinemia diagnosed during investigation of secondary infertility is presented. She was treated for over 2 years with dopamine agonists, with which her prolactin level normalized, but she remained infertile. Subsequent investigations demonstrated that she suffered from macroprolactinemia, not true hyperprolactinemia. The patient is currently not on dopamine agonist therapy, and although her total prolactin levels remain significantly elevated, her free prolactin levels have been in the normal range. Physicians should familiarize themselves with this entity and consider testing for it in patients with hyperprolactinemia to avoid an inappropriate diagnosis and unnecessary treatment.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
