Yes it can. It is called galactorrhoea. It is caused due to hormonal imbalance. Increasing progesterone levels can cause it. If you are on oral contraceptives discontinue it.

Yes, it happens due to hormonal imbalance. This may be an induced imbalance, meaning you are taking hormones or other substances which are causing this effect. (Some medications have this as an occasional side effect) It may also be an indication of a problem with the hormone secretion from your body. You should see your doctor and have them check to see if there is an internal or external cause for this. Nipple discharge, which is not milk may also be an indication of other medical problems. Be sure to get this checked out soon.

Yes. I myself went through this back in '05. I called my gyn right away, she ordered bloodwork to check my prolactin level. It was elevated, so she sent me for an MRI scan of the brain, which ended up revealing a small pituitary tumor.
This is completely benign, so don't worry if this is what you are experiencing.

yep..it can be happening and it always got to do with your hormone...you really need and get your gp to do a blood test for you to see if there is anything wrong with you...dont waste your time asking around and assume that there is nothing wrong with you...
take care.
