GALACTORRHEA: ABNORMAL BREAST DISCHARGE

Galactorrhea is a health condition when your breasts unexpectedly begin to produce milk or a milk-like discharge. This ni**le discharge may leak from your breast on its own or when touched. This is absolutely unrelated to milk production in breastfeeding or pregnancy.

Galactorrhea could happen as indication of an underlying health condition, but it is most often caused by over secretion of the biochemical catalyst called prolactin.

Prolactin is a hormone that triggers milk production. It is produced by the pituitary gland, an endocrine gland at the base of the human brain.

Notably, galactorrhea occurs most often in women but can in some cases also develop in men and children.

Galactorrhea is most common but not limited to people who are of reproductive age (between 20 and 35) and who have been pregnant.

The most common cause of galactorrhea is a non-cancerous benign tumor on the pituitary gland. The tumor causes the pituitary gland to make too much prolactin (hyperprolactinemia).

Prolactin is the hormone responsible for milk production after childbirth. Excess prolactin tricks the body into thinking it should lactate (or make milk), which is why milk or milk-like fluid discharges from the ni**les.

Taking medications including birth control pills, blood pressure medicine or antidepressants can be great risk factors of galactorrhea.

Overstimulating your breasts through sexual activity, clothing or frequent breast self-exams can also lead to galactorrhea.

More so, thyroid disorders, chronic kidney disease, taking herbal supplements like fenugreek or fennel seed, using opioids, Injury or trauma to your spinal cord are other secondary risk factors of galactorrhea.
