What Does The White Discharge From Both The Nipples Indicate?
I have just been diagnosed with Hashimoto s thyroiditis after thinking that I just had normal hypothyroidism since 1999. Noticed this evening that I am having milky white discharge from both nipples when my breasts are manipulated or squeezed. Could this be a symptom of the Hashimoto s or could it indicate a pituitary tumor causing the discharge?

hi..nipple discharge may be normal or abnormal..
it occurs normally when neeples are squeezed or constant rub with clothes.
but discharge cant be neglected..
for any suspicious you can go for BLOOD TEST , MAMMOGRAPHY and CT SCAN BRAIN ..
some drugs used in hypothyroidism may cause such condition..
so nothing to worry but get evaluate by your doctor..
take care
