Answer 1

Those white spots are pores. Google the term Glands of Montgomery. That should answer any questions you may have about the white spots.

Answer 2

A lot of people overreact on this site, so don't panic. You are perfectly fine, and it does not neccesarily mean you are pregnant. It is totally normal for fluid to come out of your nipples (although it is a small amount) and it usually is more noticable about a week before your period. Many of the women on here telling you it is abnormal or means you are pregnant have just probably never noticed, or since each woman is unique, maybe theirs was so small an amount to not notice at all.

Don't worry, you are fine. Happens to me every month. Just to be safe, have a checkup to make sure you aren't pregnant and a breast exam. :)

Nipple Discharge is of Concern if it is:

bloody or watery (serous) with a red, pink, or brown color
sticky and clear in color or brown to black in color (opalescent)
appears spontaneously without squeezing the nipple
persistent
on one side only (unilateral)
a fluid other than breast milk
Milky discharge (cloudy, whitish or almost clear in color, thin, non-sticky) is the most common type of discharge. Most milky discharge is caused by lactation or increased mechanical stimulation of the nipple due to fondling, suckling or irritation from clothing during exercise or activity. Drugs or hormones that stimulate prolactin secretion can cause spontaneous, persistent production of milk (galactorrhea). Prolactin is the hormone produced by the pituitary gland that starts the growth of the mammary glands and triggers production of milk. Some pituitary tumors cause excess prolactin secretion that can lead to milky nipple discharge, usually from both breasts (bilateral). Opalescent discharge that is yellow or green in color is normal.

Most bloody or watery (serous) nipple discharge (approximately 90%) is due to a benign condition such as papilloma or infection. A papilloma is a non-cancerous, wart-like tumor with a branching or stalk that has grown inside the breast duct. Papillomas frequently involve the large milk ducts near the nipple. Multiple papillomas may also be found in the small breast ducts further from the nipple.

Of the benign conditions that cause suspicious nipple discharge, approximately half is due to papilloma and the other half is a mixture of benign conditions such as fibrocystic conditions or duct ectasia (widening and hardening of the duct due to age or damage). Most opalescent discharge is due to duct ectasia or cyst.

Suspicious nipple discharge is due to a malignant (cancerous) lesion just ten percent (10%) of the time. Discharge caused by a malignant condition is almost always on one side only (unilateral). Discharge that is coming from both breasts (bilateral) is usually benign. Papilloma usually causes discharge from a single breast duct.

You don't say how old you are, so I'm going to assume you are of child bearing age. If you're having sex you may be pregnant. Any way you look at it, you must see your doctor without delay, as this is a sign there is something going on. Whenever you experience something that is not normal with your body, it's best to see your physician so that he/she can determine the cause.

Answer 5

You are not lactating! It is normal. Just like your skin has oil glands to protect it, your nipples also have glands that release a substance to keep them moist and prevent cracking. Don't worry.

Answer 6

plausible an infection. examine which includes your dr to work out what may be incorrect. in case you've been pregnant then it may in all likelihood be lactating, yet considering there isn't any possibility of being pregnant as you reported, it isn't widespread to have breast leakage. really see a dr. in basic terms my opinion. wish this helps.

Answer 7

No your prolactin level is high for some reason.
That could be a pituitary tumor or breast cancer or pregnancy. Or nothing but with those possibilities don't you think seeing a doctor would be prudent?

Answer 8

I wouldn't consider it normal if this is brand new for you. I would go in and get it looked at by either your Family doc or your OBGYN and make sure that it is a normal type of discharge.

Answer 9

Is the stuff coming out of the actually nipple? If it is, see a Dr ASAP. I don't mean to scare you, but that can be a sign of cancer.

Answer 10

Are you pregnant or have just had a child? Cause I cant think of any other possible reason you could be having this problem(cause it does sound like you are producing milk).
