Question:
My breasts are leaking milk but pregnancy test is negative Yesterday my breasts started to leak milk. I did a pregnancy test today that proved negative. My breasts are not sore or painful. I breastfed my daughter but stopped 18 months ago. It is definitely breast milk, without a bad smell or an odd colour. What is causing this?
Answer:
You were right to carry out a pregnancy test because this could cause some discharge as it is relatively soon after your last pregnancy. Also, the stimulation of the breast tissue which occurs in early pregnancy is quite capable of causing some leakage of milk. However, you are not pregnant so this is not responsible. It is worth mentioning that nipple stimulation, especially if prolonged during foreplay, can cause milky nipple discharge in some women, so bear this in mind as a possibility. Your breasts are not sore or painful so mastitis is very unlikely to be the problem. Oral contraception can cause some discharge. I see from your details that you stopped taking the Pill 10 days ago, so if that were the cause, the problem should be coming to an end now. One condition that can produce a milky or clear discharge is galactorrhoea, where an imbalance of hormones within the body can stimulate secretion. Certain medication may be to blame, particularly those used in treatments for some psychiatric problems, but thyroid disorders and very occasionally small benign brain tumours of the pituitary gland can lead to milk production. The discharge, you say, is definitely breast milk, which is reassuring because the investigation of any blood-stained discharge would be more urgent. My advice would be to see your doctor to undergo a breast examination and to start some simple tests to see which of the above possibilities could be responsible for your symptoms. On the face of it, it does not sound like anything to worry unduly about.

It's called gallactoria (sp?). It occurs when someones prolactin levels are too high (called hyperprolactanemia-sp?). You should see a doctor, you will have to have an MRI to rule out a tiny tumor (almost always benign) on your pituitary gland.
GO TO THE DOCTOR IMMEDIAYELY !!
You need to see an obgyn as soon as possible, discounting any medications, the only reason you should lactate is because your body thinks it has a placenta somewhere in there. If you had a miscarriage or abortion they may have missed some tissue that is now detaching and it is important to get it removed properly (I am going to assume also that you are not pregnant/just had a still born/ gave a baby up for adoption etc as this would all be explainable as well) You may have had a miscarriage and not known if it happened w/o missing a period and the placenta is the last thing to detach. Anyways go get checked out!
Because that is a natural process of maturing. Are you a kid> teen? an adult???? could you be pregnant? have you had a recent death of a child ?? ( in your womb)
Lacation occurs mainly during pregnancy. However it can also happen if there's some sort of hormonal imbalance, or if the breasts are fondled and sucked on excessively by your partner.
Quit squeezing your breast. You might have too much estrogen circulating within your body.
find out from your doctor....if you are on any medications it could happen also. I was on a med that made me lactate.
no idea, but you need to see a doctor proto.
It's natural. Don't worry about it.
i have no idea, i have a friend of mine who does that too!
See a doctor. This is not normal.
