For about the last six months, my breasts pop out at least a cup size around ovulation each month, and stay seriously enlarged until my period.  This time it's really crazy, I started getting a few drops of breast milk on top of it.  I'm not pregnant or on hormonal bc, I haven't nursed in over two years (and my milk never came in fully, anyhow) and stopped getting leftover drips long ago, and I haven't been spending significant time around babies.  I'm almost 39.


What is this?

Hi Gwen,

I suggest you see your doctor, as it sounds like a hormonal issue. There could be something going on with your thyroid. You shouldn't be expressing any breast milk.
