i am 32 and i have had my tubes tied, also i have a regular menstral cycle but my breast are producing milk. my doctor is on vacation, why would this happen?
Is it possible you are pregnant? Stranger things have happened....
well i am on my period now and when i had my son who is 11 years old my milk did not come in until later on in my pregnacy that's why i am so concerned. if i were pregnant i could not be that far along? i have not missed a period and am not having any other symtoms?
Both breasts or just one?
i am thinking that it could just be hormones? but was wondering if it could be something more?
When will your doctor be back from vacation? Is someone covering his practice while he's gone?
i called his office and they gave me a number to call and talk to one of the nurses at a clinic owned by the same hospital, so i did and she is in surgery but is suppose to call me back, this just started last night and i guess i am just freaking out! any idea why this could happen?
it could be a hormone thing. I also read it could be brought on by extreme stress or (don't freak out) a pituitary tumor. So really, there is no way to tell unless you see a doctor.
Maybe someone else has had this experience....
i got a dr appt. with the other doctor, thanks for your reply !

Good luck. Let us know what the doctor says.
got in to see the doctor yesterday afternoon, he said the same thing you did and took some blood to check levels to see if he could figure it out but i am not pregnant. this is so weird! he said it could be the tumor thing or just some imbalance in what hormones or prolactin or something imbalanced with the pitutary glands, i should have the blood results in about three days. again thank you for replys! i was freaking out ! i will post what he tells me later. have a great weekend!

Good to know someone with medical training and medical authority is worrying about your problem. You've earned a worry-free weekend.
Enjoy!
