Why do breast lactate?

Question

My sister who is just about 40(3 more months) Said she hasnt been feeling very well lately, stomach pains/tired. She said she only felt that way each time she was pregnant. She squeezed her b*****s and said there was liquid that came out. Does that mean she is pregnant? If not what could that mean?

Lactation describes the secretion of milk from the mammary glands, the process of providing that milk to the young, and the period of time that a mother lactates to feed her young.

It could be a possibility. The only way to know for sure is for her to take a test... If she's not it could be a few other things... Maybe she is going through the "change of life" (sometimes that happens to women) or she might have an infection. First take the test and then go from there. If the test comes back negative and the symptoms persist, tell her to see her doctor. Good luck.
