If bloody or green: See GYN to do a breast PAP. If white, or yellow it's usually can be attributed to galactorrhea, which is caused by low thyroid, or pituitary issues (might need blood test for TSH and other thyroid levels and/or MRI).If green or red, you are ruling out any bad breast pathology. good luck! Mine was galactorrhea. Very handy when pumping breast milk for the kids. Got 12oz out to store after feeding!
