when you have milk in your breast does that mean that you are pregnant or does that mean that you have a hormone problem does that mean that you are longing for a child or do it mean that you have breast cancer

Hi, How are you? Milk can the breast is usually seen during pregnancy especially during the latter half close to the due date. Another cause can be prolactinoma or hormonal imbalance like elevated levels of prolactin or milk hormone can cause milk like discharge from the breast. Hope this helps!
