Probably: It is important to see your obgyn and check a prolactin level and thyroid level. Leaking breasts, or galactorrhea could be a sign of a pituitary tumor. If the prolactin level is high then imaging of the pituitary gland would be necessary. It there is a pituitary tumor, then it is usually easily treated.
