What are the causes apart from Pituitary Adenoma for a non pregnant female to start lactating?


My daughter is 28yo and her youngest is 18mths. She finished breast feeding about 9mths ago and all of a sudden she has started lactating. She is not taking OCP. Any suggestions you medical gurus out there??

I think a pit adenoma or cyst would be the biggest possibility. These are usually non-cancerous and treatable, but the worry is the damage being done to the pitutiary. Has she all her hormones tested? This is the first thing that needs to be done. If more than one hormone is out of range then it points to a pit tumor or cyst. The next step would be a pit MRI. This is my favorite site for symptoms of pit hormones: http://www.goodhormonehealth.com/symptom... Have your daughter look at this table to see if she has other symptoms. She should be seen by a pitutiary endocrinologist--not just by a regular endo who primarily sees just diabetes patients. go to www.pituitary.org for Dr. listings.
