Lifestyle and home remedies
Often, milky discharge associated with idiopathic galactorrhea goes away on its own, particularly if you can avoid breast stimulation or medications that are known to cause nipple discharge.
To lessen breast stimulation:
- Try not to overdo it when touching your nipples during sexual activity
- Avoid squeezing, pinching or otherwise manipulating your nipples
- Wear clothing that minimizes friction between the fabric and your nipples
