Hey guys, I tried looking in the memorable posts for this but I couldn't find anything, so I'm sorry if this is in there...

I had sex with my boyfriend about a month ago (protected, with a condom), and my period was about 2 weeks late this month. I'm still on it, and for the first time, fluid has been leaking from my breasts. This has never happened before, and frankly, I'm a little worried.

It could be stress that was making my period late, because I have just moved across the country, but my breasts... that's just weird. Well anyway, my question is, is this a sign/symptom of pregnancy? And if so, how worried should I be?

Thank you all so much.

"was about 2 weeks late" ... so you've had it? I would guess that confirms you're not pregnant, but the breast leakage seems worth checking out for peace of mind. Is it enough to wet your clothes or you just see a little of something dried on your nipples, 'cause I don't think the latter is quite as weird... anyway, see the doctor, if only to stop worrying.

you used a condom, and you got your period. i wouldn't really be worried about pregnancy. but i would go see your doctor. you're probably a young person who this doesn't really apply to, but just as a heads-up, fluid from your breasts can be a sign of breast cancer. that's not meant to scare you, that's when it's only from one breast that it should be a real concern, and it sound like for your it's both breasts. seriously, though, the only time breasts should leak fluid is around the end of pregnancy, third trimester or after birth.
