ACCEPTED Check Mark

Hello,

Usually it is harmless, and does not signify anything seriously wrong. In fact most women can squeeze some discharge out of their nipples, especially if they have had children. The discharge may be whitish or may be yellow-green or almost black in colour. On the other hand, nipple discharge can be a symptom of breast cancer, particularly if it is bloodstained. Therefore you should definitely discuss any nipple discharge with your own doctor.
