    Hi Schwaby,

    Yes, it is possible. For a number of possible reasons, as woman may experience some leaking either on its own or when pressure is applied to the breast. Rarely is it a concern, but having it checked can offer some peace of mind.

    It is also possible for a woman to be able to lactate when not pregnant in the case of breastfeeding an adopted baby.

    Not sure which situation your question pertains to.
