Study Summary

Prolactin is a hormone that naturally occurs in the body. Some women taking antipsychotic medications may have high levels of prolactin in their bodies. High levels of prolactin may cause women to have problems with sex or satisfaction from sex. It may also cause women to have fewer or no menstrual periods. It may also cause the production of breast milk and may contribute to long term bone loss. In this study, the investigators are testing whether taking adding a low dose of an antipsychotic medication called aripiprazole may help improve high prolactin levels and help with sexual dysfunction or problems with menstrual periods. The investigators are also looking to see if it may slow the loss of bones. This medication has been shown to be helpful for improving symptoms of schizophrenia.

Primary Outcome

We will assess this outcome by monitoring the return of menstruation and the elimination of lactation. We hypothesize that adjunct aripiprazole will resolve hormonal effects in women with symptomatic hyperprolactinemia stabilized on risperidone (or paliperidone).
