???What is going on?

[mandyjo 1]

This may not be a banding question but I am going to ask...

I am producing milk. I was doing my monthly breast check 3 weeks ago and found myself with a little white stuff on my nipples. So I was curious and the more pressure I applied i produced a few more drops. I am not pg!!! I tested and had a period( a heavy one).

So for the last few weeks I have noticed an ichiness to my nipples. Then I find that I can get a few drops of milk again. I breast feed my daughter for 6 months. She just turned to last week. So I don't know what to think. I feel like I am going crazy.... Are my hormones all out of wake because of my weight loss?

Is this from both of your nipples?

I know this happened to a friend of mine in one of her nipples, and she had some type of cyst or something that had popped, but I dont' know about yours. I'd definitely go to a doctor... did you do any research on yahoo or google?

That is so bizzarre...sorry, I don't know what it could be.

if its the same in both breasts i would certainly not think it was anything serious. but go to the doctor anyway to ease your mind, and find out exactly what it is.

I was thinkin that's really odd, and I would personally flip out if that happened... but I've never had kids or heard of that.. must be another world out there :x

i wouldn't be too worried about it. i have three kids 6,5 and 6months. before i was pregnant with number 3 i would still produce a little milk (similiar to what your talking about) and my middle child was 4. i think its fine.

Any sort of discharge from your breasts when you are not producing milk for real should definately warrant at least a call to your Gyno. You don't want to mess around with "the girls". Good luck and keep us posted!

There are some serious disorders that can cause milk production. Best to see your doctor.

I called the doctor they are consulting the lac. nurse. I will call them back at noon to see if I need to go in. I will let you guys know what is going on. Thanks for all the support. It's kinda freaky...but I don't want to be a baby about it. I have life so good!

Make sure you let us know what it is, inquiring minds want to know

I called my normal doc and he really didn't want to touch the problem. So I have an appointment with a Gyno on Monday. Have a good weekend.

Rarely does breast cancer cause leaking in both breasts, other possible causes include: pituatuary tumor(relax,they are hardly ever malignant) some medications (most common antidepressants) especially when you stop taking them. Or just hormone imbalance. Some women's hormone's are controlled by there weight. I could not get pregnant and tried for 2 years. Finally when i went to a fertility specialist he told me to loose 10lbs and I would get pregnant. I lost the weight and sure enough got pregnant. He explained the whole connection between weight and hormones. I had bilateral nipple drainage last year. Scared the crap out of me! Ended up it was because I quit taking anti-depressants. Weird,huh. It is a good idea though to have them send a sample to the lab. Good luck.

Well, the doc didn't think it was a big deal because I didn't have any other symtoms. So he said it would go away in time. He is doing blood work to make sure everything is alright.

I really think it IS hormones. I think the way our bodies work is amazing!!! Keep a close look at all of the changes in your body. In a year you will be amazed I bet. So watch out, wanna get down to my goal by may 17 if at all posible!!! Hormone city!!!!
