Whenever a non-pregnant woman lactates, it's called "galactorrhea" and you wonder about a few things: 1) is it the birth control pill hers is not associated with galactorrhea, but that doesn't mean much. She could use a different birth control method for three months and see if it goes away. If it does, it's the pill 2) Is it a pituitary adenoma? benign pituitary tumors can cause lactation; blood work and an MRI will tell the tale. 3) breast stimulation if you're messing with her breasts a lot, it could cause lactation 4) a low thyroid again, a simple blood test will tell the tale She needs to see an OBGYN or an endocrinologist. If nothing pans out, she has "ideopathic" galactorrhea which means we can't figure out what's causing it. hope this he'ps. steve 1) |
Thanks Doc!
I'll give her the lecture to go see her box doctor. |
I actually have experienced this same problem recently. A couple of times that I got out of the shower I had leaked some milk. I haven't breastfed for a little over a year. I was told this is quite normal...so I am not too worried about myself.
I hope your girlfriend is ok and it is just the breast stimulation.:wink: |
