My right boob is leaking white milky fluid. It's soaked through 3 shirts and if I squeeze it more comes out. I'm not pregnant so wtf is going on? Anyone have this happen to them?

first

11/16/2010 8:32:22 PM

I'm assuming its leaking from the nipple and not some other random place on your boob.

11/16/2010 8:32:54 PM

that makes the most sense...but this long after? i will ask doc tomorrow but it's freaking me out right now.

11/16/2010 8:36:22 PM

first of all, there is a ladies talk shop thread for women. this could probably have gone there...surely the "NO MEN ITT" warning will keep them out of here.

second, chit chat, really?

Uhm, you're obviously lactating for some reason.


Lactation is the result of a high level of prolactin. You need to see a doctor because your hormones are out of whack.

AND BTW, you shouldn't be lactating from a pregnancy that ended in an early miscarriage.

was there seriously any question that her hormones are out of whack?

11/16/2010 8:38:15 PM

i have gained 20 lbs over the past 20 weeks and i was recently pregnant. my mom told me NOT to google b/c i'm a hypochondriac and would start freaking out about things.

11/16/2010 8:38:37 PM

OMG, THAT IS LIKE 1 LB A WEEK

11/16/2010 8:39:21 PM

also, no mods/owners are going to delete this thread, so if you think better of having made it too late

BIGMAN AWAY

11/16/2010 8:39:22 PM

whoops i meant 20 lbs in 2 weeks

11/16/2010 8:39:52 PM

11/16/2010 8:40:25 PM

CANCER! AIDS! DEAD BABIES!

...and other mean things that i'm sure are on their way.

i don't take tww seriously but actually got good answer. thanks again dr. tww.

11/16/2010 8:41:10 PM

Don't worry. I've been lactating for almost 3 years and I'm not dead yet.

11/16/2010 8:41:42 PM

i always thought the "talk shop" thread was about clothes

11/16/2010 8:42:29 PM

While elevated prolactin levels may be a good preliminary answer, you may want to post a picture and/or video of you massaging your boob in order for us to really get to the bottom of this.

11/16/2010 8:43:08 PM

ITT bottombaby makes us thirsty for her milk






^^ nah there's period talk and stuff in there too

I'm surprised there were no male volunteers to offer a lick probe of the area.

11/16/2010 8:43:29 PM

most of the "Talk Shop" thread is about getting in my pants

11/16/2010 8:44:00 PM

11/16/2010 8:44:26 PM

lol

You can taste it to find out if it is breast milk or something else.

11/16/2010 8:47:02 PM

11/16/2010 8:51:31 PM

NationBigMan is on your Saaan.


We'll make it work.

11/16/2010 8:51:58 PM

it is obviously time to adopt a baby. I mean you already have the milk part down.

11/16/2010 8:54:11 PM

wtf do i do till i go to the doc tomorrow? tape a lot of toilet paper to it?

11/16/2010 8:55:18 PM

i'm going to the pharmacy. they will know something about keeping me dry until i see the doc.

11/16/2010 8:56:01 PM

bottle it up and sell it in the TWW classifieds.

11/16/2010 8:56:07 PM

^3 HAHA

^2 obviously you should just cut it off... or pop on one of your old pasties and call it a day

put a panty liner in your bra. i am so not kidding. they also sell pads specifically for it.

11/16/2010 8:57:51 PM

Use the pads you use to soak up vaginal leakage. I forget what they're called but they're dependable

11/16/2010 9:08:42 PM

11/16/2010 9:11:06 PM
