leaking breast milk? Still a virgin.

I am a nineteen year old female, almost twenty, and am still a virgin. I noticed a couple weeks ago when I squeeze my nipples, or press a certain spot on my breasts that a white liquid and sometimes a clear liquid with it comes out of my nipple. But, not just like, a little bit, but quite a bit. I'm definitely not pregnant since I got my period since experiencing the leaking, and I am still a virgin.

I was recently diagnosed with depression (about two months ago), and have been taking a pill called Wellbutrin. Could my anti-depressant be causing this? Or is it something else, like an infection or disease?

I would bring this up with your doctor and ask him/or her about this. It might be a side effect or it can be a sign of something else. good luck.

This can happen because of a hormone imbalance or sometimes a little, benign tumor in your pituitary gland. Do you see a doctor? Still under your parent's insurance? I'd schedule a ob/gyn appointment and talk to them about it.  They can check your blood work to see if you have a hormonal imbalance. I was producing too much estrogen naturally when I had this issue. So, see your doctor.

I am a 30 year old virgin like you and I had the same experience of leaking milk since I was 22. Like you, I also have depression. My doctor told me that stress can lead to high prolactin levels in your blood.

Take care and I hope you feel better :) <3

The pituitary gland produces a hormone called prolactin, if you aren't pregnant or breast feeding then it should not be happening. Ask the doctor to check you pituitary gland hormones. Often it is caused by a little tumour (these are NEVER cancerous)
