What should I do if I feel stomach discomfort after tubal irrigation?

Patient's question:

My child is already 18 years old. Recently, they had a tubal patency test and experienced stomach discomfort, so they took stomach medicine for about 10 days, which included Domperidone. In the past few days, they've had breast tenderness and squeezing both sides, with white milk coming out, sometimes with a little white. They've had this condition for a long time. Is it related to the medicine? Is it serious?

Doctor's answer:

Dear, metoclopramide is a powerful prolactin-releasing drug. Using a high dose can lead to lactation outside of the breastfeeding period, and it may cause breast tenderness after use. This condition is related to taking metoclopramide, and it will stop once the medication is stopped. There is no need to worry excessively. Rest well and maintain a positive mood, with regular diet and sleep patterns.
Tubal disease is a common gynecological condition. During medication, women should pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet.
