Avatar f tn Discharge from the breast, when nipples are squeezed,increases the Prolactin hormone level and the more frequent the stimulation, the more discharge. When a woman is not lactating, there still can be a small amount fluid in the ducts which is normal.This fluid can be many colors... green, gray, white, brown, blue and black. The amounts of discharge vary with different women. Most nipple discharges are caused by benign conditions, such as duct ectasia or benign papillomas.

Avatar n tn I would suggest that you see your Dr. for a clinical breast exam and possibly some type of testing (ultrasound or mammogram). Breast discharge that is spontaneous (without any type of stimulation such as squeezing) can be a cause for alarm but even then more so when it's from one breast only. You do need to have this investigated though as breast cancer in men is not all that uncommon. This of course would be less likely since you don't mention any lump in the nipple area.

Avatar f tn When the breast is squeezed a signal is sent to the brain which in turn will produce some type of discharge from the nipple. This is associated when a baby begins to nurse .... milk is produced and this is due to the squeezing (sucking) which sends that message to the brain. It's a reaction that is put in place for a purpose but occurs even with the intended purpose (for the baby to obtain nourishment). Aren't our complicated bodies amazing works of effeciency ??
Avatar m tn I looked and I squeezed some white thick discharge which has been coming out when I squeezed it for years Then I squeezed a little harder and I heard a pop like I had popped a pimple then thinner discharge followed by a tiny bit of bloody pus type. Today I squeezed it and more of a white pus stuff came out and it's still sore. This nipple since I gave birth has always had the thick white discharge when I would squeeze it.
Avatar f tn I have had a clear secretion from the left breast for some time now and this morning when putting on my bra I noticed a spot of blood in it, when I check to see if I had a sore or something, I found nothing. I thought maybe It was from the nipple when I squeezed the nipple it released some blood. Where do i go from here?
