Q: Is a slightly oily secretion from the breasts which can be seen on the bra normal, or is it indicative of any major or minor illness? The stain is only seen on the bra and cannot be felt on the breast itself.

A:It is possible that you are having some discharge from your nipple(s). You should confirm this by squeezing the nipple gently. This condition is quite common and usually harmless but if it is blood stained you should go and see a doctor.
