Had Tubal Ligation, Breast Cancer. Have Cramping, Breast Tenderness And White Discharge. Have Delayed Periods. Suggest?
I'm 44 years of age, had a tubal ligation 17 years ago and I'm 2 weeks late for my period. I've also had breast cancer 12 years ago and only have one breast. I've been experiencing abd cramping, breast tenderness and now a white milky discharge from my one remaining breast. I'm concerned because I've never missed a period, but more importantly, I had a colostrum colored discharge when I was dx'd with carcinoma insitu 12 years ago. Please let me know what u think, however I know that a doctors visit is definitely warranted. Thanks!

Hi welcome to health care magic forum.
I think that you dont have to be very concerned since this isnt something uncommon at your age and it indicated hormonal imbalance. so you should just check your prolactine and estrogen hormonal levels to see where is the problem.it can be also easily treated if i am right. you should check your ovaries too by ultrasound or ct scan as it can show some pathology.
Hope I have answered your query.wish you good health.
