What causes watery nipple discharges in a pregnancy?
Patient: Hi, I am 27 years of age and currently pregnant with my first child. I am now 5 and a half months preggies. Today, for the first time I noticed a watery discharge from my nipples and would like to know whether this is normal for someone in my stage of pregnancy. Pls help Doctor: HiDr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your case, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.Please do not panic.As a part of preparation for breastfeeding the baby, breast glands start developing and start becoming active and in that process the secretions are formed.Please do not worry. this is absolutely normal.Please wipe out with moist, warm cloth at the time of bath, if any dried secretions are there.Also use some coconut oil or moisturizing cream around nipple and circular dark skin around to prevent cracks.I hope my answer helps you.Thanks.Wish you great health.With regardsDr Purushottam
