What happens when breast milk is squeezed out?

Breasts are originally a secondary sexual characteristic of women, but some women will have secretions from the nipples of their breasts, and most of these secretions are watery. This depends on whether you are breastfeeding. If it occurs during breastfeeding, it is a normal phenomenon. It also depends on whether it is purulent or in preparation for breastfeeding during pregnancy. These are all reasons that can cause the nipples to secrete water.

Why can breasts squeeze out water?

The breast is located in the upper abdomen of the torso of mammals, and in most cases it refers specifically to the breasts of human females. Breasts are important organs for female mammals to bear offspring. The human breast structure is divided into internal and external parts. It is mainly composed of mammary gland and other muscle tissues. For human women, how to maintain breasts is the primary issue, such as preventing various breast diseases and timely examinations are important links.

Why do women have these breast secretions?

If a woman does not drain her milk completely after weaning, the milk will deteriorate over time and form pus, or even bloody pus or black water. If it is not drained in time, the entire breast tissue will become diseased or even cancerous. Discharged fluid, such as pus, brown water, blood pus, black water, etc., must be paid attention to if such discharge occurs, because such symptoms are early signs of breast cancer. Another type is paste, such as yellow, coffee color, black, these symptoms have a higher chance of canceration;

Nipple secretions are mainly caused by metabolism. Waste accumulates in the nipple or nipple pore, making the nipple pore blocked. It is generally a paste, such as white, yellow, or black. If toxins are not discharged in time, they accumulate too much and form bumps on the areola or even inverted nipples. Inverted nipples are a sign of breast cancer.

How many types of these secretions are there?

In terms of symptoms, there are two types, one is liquid and the other is paste. In terms of nature, there are true and false discharge. True discharge is liquid flowing out of the milk duct. Pseudo-discharge is caused by the shedding of nipple epidermal cells. A small amount of it looks like bean curd, and is common in people with inverted nipples.

How to do a breast self-examination

Breast examination should first observe the development of the mammary gland: whether the breasts are symmetrical and similar in size, whether the nipples are at the same level, and whether the nipples are retracted and sunken; whether the nipples and areolas are eroded, the color of the breast skin, whether there is edema and orange peel-like changes, whether there are inflammatory manifestations such as redness and swelling, whether the superficial veins in the mammary gland area are dilated, etc.

What are the hazards?

Hazards: Long-term presence in the mammary ducts will cause the ducts to atrophy and age, making the breast tissue lose vitality and become in a pathological state. Among them, clear water discharge may be a model of breast cancer, which is characterized by being colorless and transparent, occasionally sticky, and leaving no trace after overflow. In addition, bloody discharge can be bright red, yellow, coffee brown and other colors, which is more dangerous.

What are the benefits after discharge?

After the discharge, the first thing that happens is that the mammary ducts are unblocked, restoring their normal function, transporting nutrients and expelling toxins, and then the entire breast tissue is in a normal state, activating mammary cells, fat cells, and fibroblasts, giving the breasts a new state of vitality. After the cells are nourished, the breasts' ability to absorb fat will be enhanced, resulting in a plump, beautiful and healthy appearance.
