Galactorrhea Problem

Dear Patient,

Although high prolactin levels are often associated with galactorrhoea, this is NOT the only reason for milk discharge. There are many reasons for milk discharge including certain medicines even anti allergies of some type, chest wall irritation, low thyroid levels, excessive nipple stimulation during intimacy or repeated self-breast exams, etc. This isn't alarming. However, if the regular treatment isn't working you need to address the cause behind it. I would recommend meeting an endocrinologist or a breast specialist for this rather than a gynecologist. Also, read the article I've attached explaining the causes of this condition.
