The nipple has white secretions, which are generally related to hormone changes, breast infection, mammary duct ectasia and other factors.
1. Hormone changes
During pregnancy, hormone levels in women will change, which may lead to a small amount of lactation in the nipple, which is a normal physiological phenomenon.
2. Breast infection
nipple secretions may be related to infection, such as mastitis, inflammation can stimulate local inflammatory exudation, usually accompanied by breast pain, redness, fever and other symptoms.
3. Mammary duct ectasia
nipple secretions may be caused by mammary duct ectasia, which is the result of milk accumulated in the duct discharged from the nipple.
