 :'( :'( :'(If i squeeze the nips hard enuf a drop of clear liquid will come out which is the worst thing that has ever happened to me. Also, i read this condition is related to excess prolactin which can result in a male becoming sterile which would ruin my life completely,no offence to anyone that is sterile i just really want to have kids when i grow up.

I've been reading about the condition as I have elevated prolactin levels as well.  It looks like this condition can be treatable.  Everything I read says GO GET EXAMINED BY AN ENDOCRINOLOGIST!  That professional will be able to find out specifically what is wrong and can prescribe the best treatment.  There are several drug therapies that apparently work fvery successfully for different endocrine system problems.  If there is a prolactinoma tumor on the Pituitary gland, the endocrinologist will be able to determine the size, etc. so next steps for treatment can be followed up on.

Excellent advice ... see an Endo.  And don't worry.
