Hi,
I understand your concern.
- Breast discharge along with sterility indicates hormonal involvement in inhibiting ovulation. The most common cause of it being raised prolactin level.
- If your prolactin level is normal ( please confirm by repeat test.). In case prolactin level is normal. TSH ( Thyroid stimulating hormone assessment is to be performed to get further clue for the symptom.
- Please consult an endocrinologist for his expert advise.
Thanks.
