Hello,
Nipple discharge is seen in many conditions but the most important one is cancer.Its important to be examined by a doctor for any lumps,infection etc and to also examine the kind of discharge.Another cause is high prolactin levels which need to be tested for.These need to be ruled out first before we can put it down to stress..
