Concerned With White Thick Discharge From Nipples With Odor. Has Family History Of Breast Cancer

I am a 32 yr old female and i have been having a white thick discharge from my nipples for approx 1 yr. It does have a slight odor, almost like buttermilk maybe. I am concerned mainly because I have a family history of breast cancer. Is there a cause for concern?

Hello,

I need to know the other symptoms if present. This could be due to some sort of endocrine infection, not due to cancer or infection. I suggest you to visit your doctor for your proper diagnosis and treatment if needed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
