Suggest Treatment For Milky Discharge From Breasts After Taking I-pill
Hi doctor. I am 23. Last month i had unprotected sex and had taken 2 tabs of I pill. My period was dues on 15th and i havent bled yet. Today i noticed that my nipples were lactating or some kind of translucent discharge is coming from my nipples. I had taken the home pregnancy test and it came out negative. Is this lactation/dishcharge due to i pill or something else?
One or both breasts may produce a nipple discharge, either spontaneously or when you squeeze your nipples or breasts. A nipple discharge may look milky, or it may be clear, yellow, green, brown or bloody. Nipple discharge may be associated with menstrual hormone changes. Excessive breast stimulation and hormonal supplements in the form I pill can cause nipple discharge. This is normal so don’t worry. Self -palpate your breast for any lump in breast. If you find any lump then consult a general surgeon for further management. I hope this information will help you. I will be happy if you ask another question Thanks
