The evaluation of milky<unk>  in a non-pregnant, not breast feeding women is different to the assessment of other abnormal<unk> . Often, the cause can be ascertained without performing tests. When blood tests are requested, they usually include thyroid tests and prolactin to rule out hypothyroidism and hyperprolactinemia. Other tests that may be considered include mammography, breast ultrasound, CT scan of the head to rule out a pituitary tumour, breast biopsy, x-ray imaging of breast ducts or skin biopsy. The absence of cancerous cells in samples of<unk>  does not exclude cancer, hence cytology of the<unk>  is not usually performed. However, guidance on investigations varies and tests are more likely performed if the discharge is bloody, from one breast, and the woman is age over 50. If the test is performed and malignant cells are found, an underlying cancer is highly likely.
