In most cases, female nipple secretions are white. Statistics have found that about 24% of Asian women have white nipple secretions. This phenomenon of white nipple secretions can be caused by natural childbirth or when the nipple is squeezed by external force. The cause of this phenomenon may be endocrine disorders or hyperprolactinemia. In addition, if there is an obstruction in the pituitary gland's secretory function, it may also cause the nipple to secrete white. There are many reasons why the nipples secrete white liquid. If there is an adenoma in the pituitary gland, it will cause milk secretion. Hypothyroidism - due to hypothyroidism, the pituitary gland will compensatory hyperfunction and secrete more prolactin, causing the nipples to secrete white liquid. White fluid secretion from the nipple can also be caused by drugs, such as certain high blood pressure drugs, sedatives, birth control pills and certain stomach medicines. Then there are breast diseases or benign breast diseases. The vast majority of nipple secretions in people under 50 years old are benign, with intraductal papilloma being the most common, followed by duct ectasia. In fact, in addition to this, if you suffer from fibrocystic breast disease or mastitis, it will also cause the nipples to secrete white fluid. If you find yourself having this phenomenon, you can do a self-examination, such as observing whether there are some abnormalities in the nipples or areolas, such as observing whether the nipples are sunken, checking whether the areola has changed color, and touching the breasts to feel whether there are any lumps inside the breasts. You should also focus on checking the armpit area to see if there is any enlarged axillary lymph nodes. |
