Colostrum in breast
Does colostrum only occur in pregnancy? 3 days of missed period. Last week pregnancy test says negative, don't remember when the last period was. I am 40 and had my tubes tied four years ago.

I'm only 28 and have had colostrum leakage before without being pregnant. I would venture that your about to hit menopause because during that period in our lifes we have really hard hormone fluctuations. Let me explain where I at the age of 28 have experienced the same symptoms of menopause as someone twice my age. I was on the depo shot for a few years *never again* It puts you into a post menopausal state as far as your body is concerned. It's not a good thing when your only 19. I know how it feels to have the hot flashes and the sweats. I would look into that angle first before jumping to pregnancy as the cause. Hope this helps.

Jasmine, do you do a monthly self-breast exam? Have you found any lumps? Are you experiencing colostrum leakage from both breasts?
Please read this. I don't mean to scare you, but at this age, this is something that should definitely be checke out.

Hello,
There was only leakage from one breast, this morning I woke up bleeding (period was four days late) and I even tried to squeeze some colostrum out of the breast that was leaking and there wasn't any.? No health insurance

Okay, have you done a breast self exam?
You can do this in the shower by yourself.

No lumps, no bumps? Have you had a recent mamogram? If not, I highly recommend one.
Has the leakage stopped since your period started?
I firmly believe you need to have this checked out by a doctor. I began with leakage that I just put aside to hormones, then a couple of months later a lump appeared. Long story short, I was 32 and had a bilateral radical mastectomy. I am not trying to scare you, yet I am.
I am not trying to give you the cancer scare, but I am trying to scare you into seeing the doctor if you have not already.

That is a very good sign. However, you should still make an appointment with your doc to be sure.
