Madam.

Perhaps you meant ni.pple discharge of the b.reast and not lactating as act of breastingfeeding a child.

If you experience this form of nip.ple discharge without expression,it can be referred as galactorrhea and not lactation.It is attributed to be abnormal on the ground where it is welcome by high prolactin in the serum on profiling.

But someone could also experience such on some bases where the nipple is being disturbed severally by the bra,clothe and carressing during love-making.Other factors responsible for this may be the use of some contraceptive and anti-psychotic drugs and anthelminthics.

Good morning, doctors in the house, thanks for the wonderful work you are doing. God bless you!
Please, l need your advice, I and hubby treated for staph a in Feb this year with streptomycin injections. ( by the way, is it sexually transmitted? ) In June, I had bloody discharge intermittently through out the month. Didn't experience that in July. In August, I saw my period twice ( 18th and 29th) The flow of 29th was normal but after then, I have been having bloody discharge that sometimes can only be seen when I wipe with tissue. My periods used to be 4 days with normal flow but that has changed to heavy flow of 6 days for about 18 months ago now. My circle which has always been 28 days has changed to 24 -27 days.
I am 35 with two children aged 6 and four and ttc for a third child for about a year now. My hubby is 43.
Your help will highly be appreciated.
Thanks and best wishes.

Good day doc omcron.

We have veen trying to have a child for some time now but cant. My flows and ovulation has been normal but for the past three months i dont understand mysef anymore. My flow is now irregular(cant even use up to 3-4 pads)cant notice my ovulation. Am confuse abt wats happening.

cionon:
Can you have high prolactin without lactating? Is it possible? Tnx

omicron:
By lactating, you mean breastfeeding? Yes.

It is also possible to have high prolactin without non-lactational (when not breastfeeding) milky nipple discharge, although many women with high prolactin will have milky discharge.

Sometimes this is only apparent when the milk is manually expressed by pressing them out, or when the nipple is stimulated especially by touch.

Laboratory test is more objective in terms of assessing prolactin level.

All the best

cionon:


Tnx one last question
My tummy is big like I am 3-4mnths pregnant. I av about four fibroids intramural and subserous fibroids. Then for three months , my period has been very heavy lasting about 8days. Do you think there is fibroid inside the womb?

omicron:
The fibroids can explain your "big tummy".

Eight days of heavy menses is abnormal. Your fibroids can explain it too.

The subserous and intramural fibroids already are in the womb, specifically the subserous is on the womb, and the intramural within the body of the womb.

If you meant to ask if you could have submucous fibroids, those located just beneath the uterine cavity (space inside the womb), yes you could.

Pelvic unltrasound (transabdominal and transvaginal) will show you the locations of the fibroids, how many they are and their various sizes.

cionon:


Yes I meant submucous. But scan is not detecting submucous fibroids and I read it's only submucous fibroid that causes heavey and elongated periods. So I am confused how come about the painful, heavy and long periods. Never used to have such pain to the extent I could barely walk sometimes.

omicron:
Good day,

I presume you are speaking about your wife, as your moniker is showing you are male.

How long have you been ttc?

RedCapChief:


How long does the pain last?
Does it start before the onset of your cycle or with your cycle?

Am using his profile tho.

4mths now since after we got married in april. Since after the marraige i cant seems to know my ovulation. everytin has changed

omicron:
Not only submucous.

Multiple large fibroids can present as heavy menses too.

Moreso, submucous fibroids are easily missed.

Titay:
Hi doc, I am really new in this thread. I can see you are doing a great work. God bless you. I have been ttc for about a year now, God finally did it I am like 6wks gone. But I have a problem, I usually experience stomach pain-like ulcer pain, if after I use gascol it wl subside, but please help me what do ii do, cause d pain is usually intense. Thank u

DOC, The nipple discharge doesnt come out until i press my nipple

prettmum:
I gbadun you way Doc, you are so humble. Keep it up. May God crown ur effort.

ciscajewel:

the pain does not start from my cycle but mid cycle and the pain is off and on for some hours before i get relief.

doc another question is that my dh sperm always flow out like a fluid after bedding. pls what might be the cause for tha cos i am ttc.

A woman's ovaries release eggs alternately i.e ovary Stella may take March and ovary Bola will take April. Eggs are released from the ovary about mid-cycle. There is usually some fluid that is released alongside the egg. This fluid gets into the abdomen and causes pain. For some women, the pain is negligible while for some others, it is terrible. That explains why the pain comes mid-cycle and may be on alternate sides
It is essentially a normal phenomenon and I'm sorry you have so much pain. You can google 'mittelschmerz' to read more about it.

Having reflux of seminal fluid after intercourse is not an abnormal phenomenon, particularly when the viscosity of the man's semen is reduced. Studies are inconclusive as to the effect that this will have on those who are ttc.
I'd suggest you remain in bed/avoid activity for about 20mins after intercourse.

Thanks to the docs in the house for giving us hope.

Here is a case study. Laura 35, was pregnant 2010, she had swelling and was later induced, in checking for dialation, junior doctor informed senior doc that her pelvis was smaller but was ignored. Gave birth with a tear to large baby but with complications, was referred to luth with a case of prenatal asphezia. Baby died 9 days later. Ttc till date, she has done hsg, scan, hormonal and swab. Ob/gyn said she is slightly pcos but had IUI done twice which failed.

Broke Laura is near giving up but we keep encouraging her. She gained some weight and sometimes she says she feels like walking away from it all.

My question: what can she do?

How does one manage being slightly pcos?

I share this case as a very close confidant, please advice
