Well, I'm finally back in the hut . . . it's always distressing that I have a 32 day cycle and 28 days of birth control pills . . . so I don't start until I've almost started taking my next pack. Had that full, swollen, crampy feeling all day, sitting in a training room rather than stretched out on my belly on my bed . . . that would have been preferable.

I've got a dr. appointment for Tuesday - my right nipple has been hurting for the last two weeks, and while doing a routine breast exam (and doing the routine nipple squeezing), a small amount of clear fluid was expressed. That concerns me. Sure, it may be hormones (was PMSy at the time) but if it's only one nipple and there's pain, I want to be sure. Went to WebMD and the only concrete thing they have to say about it is *breast cancer*. Yes, thank you very much. Thppthtppthtppth.

I've had leaky breasts. The two reasons given me were:

too much prolactin (that is because of a microscopic tumor on my pituitary gland)
and
a fibrous cyst

Neither have anything to do with cancer. So stay mellow. =)

I'm not freaking out yet . . . much. :) But thanks for the reassurances!

I had a similar experiance, but sometimes it was a light green color. My doctor told me it was b/c of my deoderant, so I changed to Tom's of Maine and it went away!
