There are several things this could be. You have tested negative for pregnancy, which would be the first thing I'd question. Oral contraceptives can sometimes cause a breast discharge in some women, so perhaps if you are taking them (or even recently stopped), this could possibly be a side effect. Also, some women do excrete some discharge during nipple stimulation, so maybe that is possible? Some medications can cause nipple discharge, best to ask your doctor if you are taking any that might cause this.
There is a hormonal medical condition called galactorrhoea that could cause breast secretion. My advice to you is to talk to your doctor and explain your symptoms and see if he/she can determine the cause. Whatever the cause, a visit to your doctor is always the best course of action when anything out of the ordinary pops up, in my opinion. Hope this helps.
