A member asked:
I'm wondering why are my breasts still leaking after pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variety of reasons: Any prolonged stimulation of the breasts or ongoing nursing will promote ongoing lactation. However this should stop, and if it persists you may want to seek evaluation for possible prolactin producing tumors.
