green discharge from breast

so many women have the green discharge but nobody is getting answers of the composition of the substance.  What is this liquid sticky green substance coming from the breast composed of .   I was wondering how it affects the partners of these women as well.   Just wondering if your men are overweight/ bloated or have some type of diabetes after ingesting it.   Is this green substance possibly causing some side affects in the men who are ingesting it.    Just a thought to possibly look in to or discuss.  Since we are not getting answers.  whatever


This discussion is related to green fluid .

Just to add a note to Zouzi's excellent response  .... if you are so very concerned about the relationship between your breast discharge and your partner I suggest that he STOP ingesting the fluid and ask your Dr. if he/she would consider sending some of the drainage for Pathological Studies to determine it's content. Let me assure you that ingestion of breast discharge DOES NOT cause the problems and/or diseases that you mention are affecting your partner. I might suggest that he also see a Dr. about the symptoms you stated.  I see nothing in your post that would be related in any way to Breast Cancer.     Regards ....

Hi,
To answer your first question,breasts are programmed to begin making milk during pregnancy. If a woman is not pregnant,the breasts can also be “tricked” into making milk if her hormone balance imitates what is seen in pregnancy. Usually, even if the liquid is colored yellow, greenish, gray, or brown instead of being purely clear or white, the liquid is “actually milk” that can be of any consistency that has been made by the breast. Breast discharge can be caused by a wide range of disorders,most are not worrisome, but if you are having this problem,I would suggest seeing your doctor and ask for some type of tests,particularly if the discharge is unilateral. These tests will help determine if the condition is normal or abnormal.As for your second question on how it might affect men who ingest the discharge,in my opinion, I don’t think it could cause obesity,bloating  or diabetes.However,the best source of information and opinion would be their own treating doctors.
Take care..
