What Is The Cause For Missed Periods?
I haven't had my period this month, light spotting a couple weeks ago. I have clear leakage from my nipples which also have little white bumps on them... I have taken 3 HPT's but all came up negative... Please ease my mind and tell me whats going on?

Hi dear and thanks for your query.
As you report both missed periods and leakage from nipples have relation with each other.
Leakage from nipples may be from high blood level of prolactin( is a hormone produced ,most common prolactinoma,benign tumor ).
Missed periods(or light spotting) may be too from high prolactin.
Hence have a blood prolactin level and contact with an endocrinologist.
All the best
