  • Hi Patricia,

    I was referred to Breats Clinic after seeing my GP with nipple discharge in November last year. There are various different reasons why someone might have discharge - some harmless and others that need extra investigation/treatment - and different types of discharge (different colour, consistentcy, coming from a single duct or more, one breast or both). They will likely do a mamogram and ultrasound to see if there is anything that warrants further investigation.

    I am 43 and had some pain but no lumps or anything so quite similar to what you have described.

    Hope that helps!

    Try not to stress although easier said than done - do you have a date for the breast clinic?
     

    Take care x
