Breast tenderness, wondering what's going on

Patient's question:

Breast tenderness, sometimes with a small amount of milk-like fluid, for about a week now. What kind of help is needed: want to know what's going on, what medicine can help a lot

Doctor's answer:

If there are no lumps or nodules in the breast, and no orange-peel-like changes in the skin, and a very small amount of milk-like fluid appears again, it may be caused by elevated prolactin. Elevated prolactin can lead to menstrual disorders, or even amenorrhea.
1. If the menstrual cycle has not decreased, then go to the hospital to have your female hormones checked to see if prolactin levels are elevated. If prolactin levels are elevated, bromocriptine can be taken for treatment.
2. If the menstrual cycle has decreased, then it is necessary to check if you are already pregnant.
