Reasons For Nipple Discharge

Breasts are supposed to be the most attractive part of a female body. Most women feel the pride to have beautiful breasts but what if they are not healthy? Women who provide breastfeeding to their child have breast discharge which is quite common. 

But in any other case, it might be a symptom that needs treatment. Any sort of nipple discharge and lumps needs to be examined so that there is no risk of breast cancer.

Circumstances, where a woman faces continuous breast discharge may be due to hormonal imbalance known as galactorrhea. Any liquid release other than breast milk could be a sign of infection, inflammation or tumor in the breast. 

The pituitary, thyroid, adrenal and ovarian glands are responsible for the production of breast milk. If the thyroid gland is not producing enough hormones then it could lead to the untimely release of breast milk. 

Another reason could be a non cancerous growth on the pituitary gland and at the same time, the menstruation may stop. Even if there are some diseases of the part of the brain that controls the pituitary gland could be responsible for breast discharge. If there is any breast lump found, you should consult with a breast surgeon.
