What Causes Dark Line On Lower Abdomen Along With Bumps Around Nipples?

Posted on Fri, 27 Mar 2015

Question: Hello I've had some sleep where I feel comatose or detached from self do you think this normal?
Also my other question is that do you think it normal if I have a dark line on lower stomach plus open nipples( I remember possible slight fluid in nipple area awhile back) with some bumps around nipple area, but don't ever recall being pregnant, yet these are signs of pregnancy. What could this mean?

Brief Answer:
There is no need to worry about

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear and thanks for your query.

Both two issue you are faced have no problems and have no relation with any serious disease.

For the first problem may be from excess stress you may have .
Hence be calm.

Second ,dark line in the lower abdomen if you haven't any other symptoms and sign may be from the excess pigmentation .
Dark line and open nipples are sign of being pregnant,but you have excluded it .

If you have possibilities please upload some photos of your nipples and dark line .

All the best

What did I exclude? from possibility
Is there any other possible answer besides pregnancy, for discharge from nipples?

Answered by Dr. Vjollce Mbiarra (8 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
it may be as a side effect of your medication

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear again.

Discharge from nipples can be a side effect of medication you maybe using. Some medications cause high levels of prolactin, that is a lactogen hormone.

You can upload the photos from your dashboard. You can also send then at YYYY@YYYY and address it to my name: Dr. Vjollce Mbiarra

Hi also I wanted to know though what if I can't recall being on a medication that could cause such a discharge?
I have attached photo of line on lower abdomen area and will supply photos of nipples too for your further diagnosis of such. Also is there a gyn examination that could be done to tell if I've ever been pregnant?

Brief Answer:
Have you had intercourse

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear again.
Please tell me if you have had unprotected intercourse to tell you if you have chances to be pregnant or not.
Do you take any medication like olanzapine?
Dark line in your lower abdomen is not like as pregnant women.
Nipples Seems normal compared with the color of your skin.
Hence don't worry so much for the pigmentation of your line and nipples.

All the best
