Brief Answer:
Breast discharge could be related to many condItions.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Breast or nipples discharge could be related to several conditions ranging from physiological discharge related to hormonal changes to serious breast diseases.
Prednisone causes hormonal disbalances, so, in my opinion, the discharge is related to prednisone use.
But, since there is discharge from one breast, a check up from your primary care Doctor is needed to exclude other possible causes.
A prolactin blood level and ultrasound of your breasts are simple useful tests to exclude other causes about nipples discharge.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

I am not pregnant because I started my period
Brief Answer:
Prednisone use is a possibility.
Detailed Answer:
Hi again XXXXXXX
Pregnancy is a possibility of nipples discharge, and this is related to hormonal changes too.
This possibility is eliminated now.
I still think you need breast check up ( ultrasound) and Prolactin level measured.
Hope this helps you. Best regards.
