How Estrogen Fluctuations Before Diagnosis Affect the Size Prolactin-secreting Tumors

Inclusion Criteria of cases : * Female patients aged ≥ 18 years at recruitment (diagnosis may have occurred before age 18). * Diagnosis of a prolactin-secreting macroadenoma established between January 2013 and December 2023. The diagnosis may have been made either in the Endocrinology Department of Hôpital Louis Pradel or by another medical team, whether within or outside the hospital setting. However, follow-up or part of the follow-up must have been performed in the Endocrinology Department of Hospices Civils de Lyon (HCL) * Diagnosis established by : A hypothalamic-pituitary MRI centered on the sella turcica, performed with gadolinium injection, including fine T1-weighted coronal and sagittal slices (1.5-3 mm), showing an adenoma with at least one axis measuring \> 10 mm, AND Serum prolactin \> 100 µg/L, or 24-100 µg/L with either a favorable response to medical therapy or histopathological confirmation after surgery. * Ability to understand the study and provide informed non-opposition. Inclusion Criteria of controls : * Female patients aged ≥ 18 years at the time of recruitment (diagnosis may have occurred before age 18). * Diagnosis of a prolactin-secreting microadenoma established between January 2013 and December 2023. The diagnosis may have been made in any medical center, but follow-up or part of the follow-up must have been carried out in the Endocrinology Department of Hôpital Louis Pradel. * Diagnosis must be based on: A hypothalamic-pituitary MRI centered on the sella turcica, performed with gadolinium injection, including fine T1-weighted coronal and sagittal slices (1.5-3 mm), showing a prolactin-secreting adenoma with all axes measuring \< 10 mm, AND A biological assessment performed outside any condition likely to bias results (significant stress, physical exertion, pregnancy, or intake of hyperprolactinemia-inducing drugs unrelated to prolactinoma treatment), showing serum prolactin \> 24 µg/L. * Ability to understand the nature and implications of the study and to provide informed non-opposition to participation. Exclusion Criteria of cases : * Presence of a non-secreting macroadenoma. * History of isolated hyperprolactinemia or an isolated pituitary lesion documented prior to 2013, without subsequent direct diagnosis of prolactinoma. * Presence of a known genetic abnormality or a genetic syndrome predisposing to the development of a prolactin-secreting adenoma. Exclusion Criteria of controls : * Presence of a non-secreting microadenoma. * Uncertain diagnosis of adenoma with an ongoing therapeutic trial. * Isolated hyperprolactinemia without evidence of adenoma. * Hyperprolactinemia or pituitary lesion without hyperprolactinemia documented prior to 2013, without subsequent direct diagnosis of prolactinoma. * Presence of a known genetic abnormality or a genetic syndrome predisposing to the development of a prolactin-secreting adenoma
