I am 29 and every once and a while I notice a greyish/whiteish/yellowish thick discharge from my left nipple. I have talked to my ob/gyn about it and every time I'm there, she can't see anything wrong. I have had a breast cancer scare once before but it was on my right breast. I have also had pre-cancerious leasons on my cervix... could there be a connection between the other cancer scares and the new development of discharge from my left nipple? Or could it be some kind of infected pore. My nipples are constantly very sore too.. any insight?

There is certain times where women will have discharge from their breasts. You have already been to the doctor and they are not concerned? Depending on the colour of the discharge you should be concerned. Some colours that are discharged are normal and others are not. There was an episode about this very thing on the doctors show. As far as there being a connection to your other cancer scares I honestly do not think they are linked. If you have not seen a different doctor to get a second opinion. My suggestion would be for you to get a second opinion. How long has this been happening for? Only certain type of the month? Hormonal imbalances?

Here is the link to The Doctors episode. All about women.

I first noticed this about a year ago. When it first happened it was just a simple white. Now that the years have passed its gotten darker with a sometimes not often brownish color. I do have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome which causes my testosterone levels to be more elevated than normal, and that's the only hormonal imbalance that I'm aware that I have. And its mainly all the time that this happenes... my nipples are sore all the time but more sore turning my cycle.
