Since childhood, I have had inverted nipples with hard lumps. Now, I have been treating my child for half a month.

Patient's question:

Since childhood, I have had inverted nipples with hard lumps. Now, after breastfeeding my child for half a month, I have discovered milk. Is this a symptom of breast cancer? Should the milk be expressed? I am 19 years old.

Doctor's answer:

Medical Analysis: Based on your description, it is not a symptom of cancer, but rather a symptom of milk secretion caused by elevated prolactin levels in your body after a miscarriage.
Advice: It is recommended that you avoid stimulating your breasts and refrain from applying hot compresses with hot water. Do not squeeze. If the symptoms do not improve, you should go to the gynecology department of a hospital for hormone testing to confirm the diagnosis. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
