Breast Discharge What Is Going On ?
Posted: 05-26-07 18:34pm

I have been very stressed at work and I haven't been myself the past couple weeks. I was just attributing it to the stress that I have had. Then this afternoon I noticed that I had a discharge from my boobs. the left one more so than the right. I have never had anything like this. Is it normal to have discharge without being pregnant? Granted I haven't taken a pregnancy test, but I went to the gyno for my annual about 2 months ago and everything was clear. Could I really be pregnant and having a discharge this quickly?

Discharge from your boobs is not typically an early sign of pregnancy. In fact, it may signal an infection or high levels of the hormone prolactin. High prolactin levels can mess up your menstrual cycles as well. You should see the doc and get it checked out.

If you had unprotected sex recently and are concerned you are pregnant and your period is late, take a pregnancy test. I'd see the doc again to get the boob discharge checked out.
