Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to what you mentioned, your condition is not normal and may be related to breast diseases. It is recommended that you go to the breast surgery department for examination and diagnosis. Breast discharge may be due to breast inflammation or a pituitary tumor. The pituitary gland regulates the secretion of various hormones, including estrogen and progesterone. If the pituitary gland has problems, the hormone levels change, and corresponding symptoms may appear. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination, where an MRI can be performed to rule out pituitary issues.
