Milk discharge from the breast without pregnancy or breastfeeding, known as galactorrhea, can occur due to hormonal imbalances or underlying health conditions. Common causes include elevated prolactin levels, thyroid disorders, certain medications, stress, or excessive breast stimulation.
In some cases, it may be linked to pituitary gland issues or other medical concerns. While it is often not serious, persistent or unexplained discharge should not be ignored. Consulting a healthcare professional is important for proper diagnosis and treatment. Early evaluation helps identify the root cause and ensures appropriate care for maintaining hormonal and overall health.
