Abstract: The purpose of this study was to identify the dependence of prolactin on the lower extremities level of traumatic amputation in Paralympic athletes. The study used prolactin levels in members of Russian national teams (n=150) with traumatic amputations of the lower extremities at different levels in the pre-competitive period. It was found that the level of prolactin in Paralympic athletes is directly proportional to the level of lower limb amputation.
