Yeaaaah...so both of my nipples started leaking. Which, in a weird way, makes me feel better? Cause having just one do it is kinda weird.
Also they hurt like wtf girls?

So I'm wearing a t-shirt for now, to soak up the tiny droplets which keep forming. It works, better than having to do it manually with a piece of toilet paper so freaking often, anyway.

This definitely isn't an infection, I'm almost certain of that now. For one, it's both of them leaking now.
And also...

All of this (in my opinion) points to high prolactin, which would make perfect sense in this case, I'm taking an SSRI (which increases prolactin), trazodone (which does as well) and cypro (which massively increases prolactin). I might bump my cypro dose down to 25mg every three days instead of two...
I think I'm fine, but I'm definitely getting an endo appointment now, just to make sure it's not a tumor. Even a benign one, having a mass in your head is not a good thing...

Other than my boobs hurting a lot now and leaking a milky substance...I'm fine tho. And I think that's a good thing.
The only thing that bothers me, is that as they grow, my nips are getting...well, I don't like the shape much tbh. But what can I really do?

Actually, I was surprised by this reaction of mine, but I'm actually kind of enjoying the milkage. It's...affirming in the grossest, weirdest of ways (sorry). I don't mind! Still, worth getting checked out. And I'll do just that.

When I had my son, they had these pads you can put in your bra for breastfeeding, those might help. I hope you figure it out soon.

That would honestly help a lot, I think. God I should buy a real bra and not just a bralette...I'm a failure /s
Thank you 💜

Im on the sameish medications (cypro+prog) as you so the prolactin stuff is def something im on the look out for. No minty breast milk yet however.

No breast milk is good, when it's without cause. I'm actually glad it isn't happening to you, as it could be something really bad.
Take care of yourself Minty. Monitor your prolactin and please be well girlie 🩷

Take care of yourself too miisha ❤️

LOL
I mean, there should be enough of it now...time for breast milk cheese I guess 😂
I like cheese a lot. This sounds kinda fun.

Christ, my doctor would never even let me near this many hormones.

At some point early on I also leaked a bit and I was doing 25mg of cypro daily, I eventually lowered it to 12.5mg every 3 days.

That was still a bit too high as it nuked my T below the normal cis girl range

I'm lucky. I'm privileged. My endo is alright. I'm sorry that isn't your case...

I have an appointment tomorrow, I'll see about lowering (or dropping) the cypro. It's the med that increases prolactin by far the most, of all the stuff I take.

I have high prolactin as well and my Endo just won’t believe me that it comes from cypro… she insists that the E alone is responsible for that.

From the title I thought you meant both you and your bf started lactating 😭

Oh noo 😭
That would be...kinda concerning. Thankfully not.
