As Kathy Y asked this question well over a year ago I hope that she has certainly 'got off her computer' by now and sought help. |

Kathy_Y: Get off of your computer, now! You need to see a doctor right away honey. This is not normal for your breasts to be leaking anything unless you have just had a baby. Please honey...go now. We will be here when you return. God bless you and be with you now and always. |

Cathy, if you have never had children I am unsure what it is, but if you have had children I'm guessing it is milk. I had this problem for many years after having my last child and it is quite common (sometimes it had a green tinge to it also). For your own peace of mind go and get it checked out though. Please get back to us after you've seen the doctor and let us know. |

I don't know your age Cathy, but this happens sometimes during menapause. However, no matter your age get to a doctor quickly to get to the bottom of the problem. |

M.P.,I wasn't making the statement to be argumenative, for we both were speaking what we understand. I just don't think it is a common occurance,I had never heard of it before in our part of the country, without underlying disease. Given others know about it I even wondered if it was pecular to one part of the world more than another. I had heard, in parts of Japan they would give babies to elderly men to keep/babysit ,men let them suckle, and they came to milk to feed them. |

Darlene, I was passing on information given me in writing. This is the exact wording "While a milky nipple discharge is rare in men and in women who have never been pregnant, it does occur. When it does, it is more likely to be caused by some underlying disease (particularly when accompanied by other changes in the breast(s). IT IS RELATIVELY COMMON IN WOMEN WHO HAVE HAD AT LEAST ONE PREGNANCY. I said 'quite common', this info. says 'relatively common' so perhaps there is a slight difference there. |

I had the problem over many years, attended hospital to have it checked out and was told that it was old, retained milk and is quite common. I had many hospital visits for this problem as well as cysts (the fluid in cysts looks somewhat like urine). At the age of 50 I had to have the milk ducts removed because blood had started to show in the milk as well. That is far less common. Anything unusual to the individual should be checked out. |

I agree with all here. While it could be something as minor as a cyst or breast milk leaking, there may also be something that requires immediate medical attention. Please get to the doctor right away. |

for years I had the same problem, and thought that I had cancer, but eventually it stopped after I breast fed my last daughter. But You MUST SEEK MEDICAL ASSISTANCE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. |

Please don't be afraid, but as Moderator said,do go to a doctor, quickly.That is one of the warning signs of cancer,another is if a dimple appears in the breast,and also if the nipple becomes inverted. I don't want to scare you, but I have never heard of what M.P. said, and I'm 67,it isn't as common as she thinks. Could you possibly be pregnant? Then it would be normal,mother-in-law had last child at 45. |

When I found a large lump in a breast it was my fear that kept me from getting to a doctor for a while. Thank God it was only a cyst. My fear could have killed me had it not been a cyst. Get to a doctor immediately. Where does fear come from? |

God in Jesus name I command the leak to stop and any damage be restored by the power of the blood of Jesus. Amen. |
