Question: Please I am not pregnant and I have water coloured  discharge from my breasts whenever I press it The discharge is colourless Is it normal
Answer: Hello 

Good evening 

Watery or milky discharge from the breasts when one is not pregnant is not normal 

There is a condition called hyperprolactinaemia where the prolactin levels in the blood is high and usually results to this 

Prolactin is a hormone that is responsible for a woman to lactate or produce breast milk after child delivery 

Other causes include a pituitary tumour hypothroidism liver disease and kidney disease 

I advise that you go and see a doctor for a detailed history and physical examination You would also need to do some tests to ascertain the hormonal levels and even rule other other conditions 

Treatment would depend on the outcome of your visit to the doctor 

I hope this helps 

Cheers
