Milk from my breast

If milk is discharged from your breasts and you are not pregnant or breastfeeding, this condition is referred to as galactorrhea. It is not classified as a disease.

There is a small atypical, non-cancerous growth in the brain referred to as a pituitary gland tumor (prolactinoma). If we experience thyroid issues, particularly low thyroid hormone levels, it can have an impact. Using certain medications for an extended period, such as antidepressants, antipsychotics, medications for high blood pressure, and birth control pills, can also pose a problem.  Stress can significantly disrupt our hormonal balance
