What happened in the story above is a condition known as galactorrhea, where a person has milk like discharge from either one or both nipples.
This discharge is different from the regular milk secretion that occurs during pregnancy
It can occur in men also, Yes you heard it

This can be caused by a number of things:
Let& #39;s start from the common:
The commonest cause is what we call a prolactinoma, this is simply a tumor or growth that occurs in the pituitary gland.
Where is this gland? I& #39;d like to say it& #39;s in between your eyes, inside your head

Prolactin majorly controls breast milk during pregnancy,
But when it& #39;s increased in non pregnant women, it may cause this breast discharge
In women, they may also have absent periods or they may not see their periods every month
Some may have issues bearing children

What do you do if you have this?
You need a doctor, preferably a gynecologist
He or she will ask some questions and examine you to be sure that there are no lumps in your breasts.
Some tests will be run, to check the level of your hormones this helps to narrow down the cause
