Best Doctors for Nipple Discharge Treatment in Indore

Nipple discharge is described as fluid leakage from the nipples of one or both breasts in women. It is mainly observed in women immediately after childbirth and in late pregnancy. Normal nipple discharge comes from both breasts and from several milk ducts only upon squeezing and is clear, brown, green, yellow, or white. Nipple discharge is concerning if it is bloody and comes from only one breast on its own, and if there are also other symptoms like breast swelling, pain, changes to the nipple, or redness. The factors responsible for causing nipple discharge include pregnancy or breastfeeding, hormonal imbalances, medications like antidepressants and birth control pills, sexual arousal, non-cancerous cysts, stress, and injury to the breast and friction from clothing or nipple stimulation. Nipple discharge also occurs due to medical conditions like mammary duct ectasia, papilloma, breast infection, cancerous breast tumor, pituitary gland tumor, severe Paget's disease of the breast, and an underactive thyroid gland tumour.
