Prolactin primarily targets the mammary glands, promoting breast development and milk production, especially during pregnancy and lactation due to increased estrogen and progesterone levels. Elevated prolactin levels (hyperprolactinemia) can disrupt reproductive functions in both men and women, causing conditions such as amenorrhea, infertility, galactorrhea, and gynecomastia.
