Is Breast Milk Leakage A Sign Of Pregnancy?

I gave birth 6 months ago to my daughter. She was born stillbirth 4 days before my due date. I stopped leaking breast milk soon after I had her, since then I have not had any issues with leaking breast milk. Today I started to leak, and I m worried it may be a sign of pregnancy again?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The leakage of milk from the breasts can be associated with pregnancy or a hormonal disturbance or an excessive breast stimulation. You need to do a urine test to confirm the pregnancy.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
