yea if u keep squeezing ur breasts they will produce stuff. a yellowy/milky substance is quite normal when stimulated. like said u need to worry about stuff that leaks out when u dont apply pressure!

Breast discharge when pressure is applied isn't really anything to be concerned about. When there is nipple discharge without any pressure being applied can be of concern and should be ck.d out by your Physician.  The fluid can be almost any color and consistancy. I wouldn't recommend this stimulation .... it will usually produce some amt. of nipple discharge. If you are particularly concerned you could certainly make an appointment with your Dr. for a clinical breast exam. Yearly screening mammograms are recommended from age 40,      Regards ....
