What Causes Yellowish Brown Discharge From Breasts?

I just watched doctors and it showed a lady having discharge in her breast when squeezed. I am 56 years old and had a hystroctomy when I was 35. I had noticed many years ago I have little droplet of yellow brown that comes out when I squeeze the nipple is this something to be worried about? I will get it in both breast.

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Yellowish brown discharge could be a normal discharge, fibrocystic disease, thyroid disorder, hormonal medicine, ductal papilloma, infection.
For safer side, consult the surgeon and undergo breast examination, and investigations like
Laboratory analysis of the discharge, Mammogram and/or ultrasound, FNAC,
Surgical excision and analysis if needed.
Treatment will depend on the specific cause.
Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, do regular exercise, maintain hygiene and drink plenty of water
Hope this may help you
