Question : Hi, I've been having doubts because back in December and I started using
Birth control but had to discontinue because of side effects and 2 weeks later after having sex I had my period and it was heavy for 4 days but now this is the 4th week and I have green veins on my breast they are sore but no color change and white milky discharge is this pregnancy symptoms or just my menstrual cycle approaching?

Brief Answer:
urine pregnancy test advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
In case you are doubtful then do a urine pregnancy test and see the result.
But in my opinion this is just premenstrual syndrome and will be fine after periods.
Take care

Dr Manisha
