Sore Breasts, Milky White Discharge From Them. On Depo Provera Shot. Causes For Symptoms?
I am currently nearing the end of a depo provera shot. My breasts get tender most months which I m assuming is my usually ovulation/ period time. They have been sore for two weeks now and are leaking a milky substance. I m only assuming I m not pregnant, and hoping. I am yet to have children and I m worried there may be a bigger issue at hand????
