This is not joke. I lactate when I'm on my period?

Question

Its true. I havent breastfed for over a year but these past two cycles, I wake up in the morning with nice lactating breast. What do you think is causing it?

Answer 1

Registered Nurse here; Hun sounds like you have a hormonal imbalance. I strongly suggest you make appointment with OB/GYN and go in for evaluation. Also don't faint, but if you have been sexually active you could be pregnant. For many times when the female breast feeds, her menstrual cycles will stop, however ovulation doesn't and bang your pregnant. Another reason I strongly encourage you to see the Doc. At any rate this is not normal, and needs to be addressed, so that you can get the imbalanced resolved, prior to it becoming a big issue.
Thanks for the opportunity to address such a sensitive question.
