Milky Discharge From Right Breast. Took Morning After Pill 3 Days In A Row For Vaginal Burning, Itching. Due To Increased Hormone Level?
this morning i had some milky discharge from my right breast. I recently took the morning after pill (3 days in a row) because I had some vaginal burning and itching. Would this have increased my hormone level to cause the nipple discharge? I had a problem in the past with my left nipple having discharge that was clear and my internal medicine doctor took me off estrogen supplement about 8 months ago. I do take a lot of vitamins (fish oil w/Omega 3; 1-day multi vit for women over 50; D3-5000; B-12; 2-aspirin a day; diclophenac 2-day; losartan 1/day; and ibuprophen 2/day;
Hi, Thanks for the query. Abnormal nipple discharge can be seen due to conditions like: - Hormonal imbalance -Prolactinomas -Irritation due to cloths can also lead to nipple discharge sometimes. -Usage of medicines like antacids.

This pills should not be used for vaginal symptoms and they are mainly meant for emergency contraception. Repeated intake can lead to hormonal imbalance. Better to consult gynecologist once and get evaluated to find out the exact cause. If needed go for a mammogram and prolactin levels estimation. And take treatment accordingly. Take care.
