please help

One morning I was checking my breasts to make sure they were ok cuz they hurt really bad. When I pinched my nipples some white gooey stuff came out. Is that normal? If it isn't does anyone have any idea what it could be?

Get this checked.  Besides cancer, some medications can cause the hormonal shifts.  I had it happen once and my breasts started producing a bit of milk discharge.  Uhhh....I've never been pregnant in my life.  If it is cancer, it is vital to find out in the early stages.

You should see your health care provider for some tests. It is most likely due to a hormone fluctuation BUT it could potentially be something more serious (for example, very rarely this will happen as an early sign of breast cancer). It is particularly worrisome if only one breast is affected.
