Patient's question:
I had previously noticed breast tenderness and sometimes milk leakage, but I was not pregnant.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Hello, the ability to express milk from the breast along with symptoms of fullness and pain is caused by elevated prolactin levels in the body. A female hormone test should be conducted on the third day of the menstrual cycle to confirm.Advice:
1. Elevated prolactin often leads to menstrual irregularities, with common symptoms including a longer cycle and reduced menstrual flow.
2. Elevated prolactin can be treated with bromocriptine.
