Could A Menstrual Cycle With Colostrum Like Breast Discharge Be A Pregnancy?
Yes, I am a 38 year old female and I have some issues going on.
I had a tubal in December 1991, but here in the last week I have been noticing some strange things. I had a slight menstral cycle starting on the 5th of this month, it wasn't really normal. Then I noticed an oder that was familiar to me, I nursed my two children, then I checked my breast, I pushed back on the areola and then pulled forward on my nipple and a clear like fluid like colostrum came out on both breasts, I am also having several other symptoms of pregnancy. I took a home test and it was negative. Coul I be preganant?

Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your query, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
1.First of all do not panic.
2. You are right in suspecting pregnancy with nipple discharge and getting urine pregnancy test done.
You can very well rely on urine pregnancy test done by you.
In case of doubt please go for blood beta HCG test and USG.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
