Galactorrhea is a non-lactational milk discharge from nipples unrelated to the usual milk production during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Various hormones such as prolactin, estrogens, thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) can affect the production of milk. Often, it results from increased levels of prolactin – the main milk production hormone.
It usually happens in women, but it can happen in men and babies too.
Common Symptoms
- Nipple discharge that maybe irregular or constant.
- Leaked or manually nipple discharge from one or both breasts.
- Headaches or vision problems.
- Irregular periods
- Vaginal dryness
- Loss of libido
- Erectile dysfunction (in men)
Discharge of milk during breast stimulation, or excessive nipple manipulation may also trigger such discharge – if this happens it does not signal anything serious, in most cases.
But non–milky nipple spontaneous discharge — particularly bloody, yellow or clear one that comes from breasts or if it is associated with a lump you can feel — requires prompt medical attention.
