White stuff comes out of my nipples when I squeeze them?

I've had this slight problem for a couple years now, especially after my breasts became fully developed and I know they won't be growing any bigger unless I become pregnant. After I get out of the shower, I notice that my nipple tips have white spots on them. Curious, I squeeze them and found that the white stuff actually came out. It's not running, it's actually quite thick, but not slimy or anything. Kinda like the white impurities that come out when you squeeze a black head.

What is it? Is it harmful? I've been ignoring this for a while now, but now I really wanna know. Could this be discharge from the mammory gland? Or is it something else? I'm 19, and since having this condition I haven't felt any different, nor has it been causing me problems. I'm just curious and slightly annoyed. And yes, I do squeeze the white stuff out when I see it. I also had eczema since I was born, if this helps in any way.

Nipple discharge is common in women and is actually healthy.It can happen during sexual arousal and at certain times during the menstrual cycle. It can also happen to keep your pores and ducts open. Make sure to wash them though because they can dry and build up. Some guys also have nipple discharge. It may look like very thin milk, or it may be clear, grayish, thick white, or light yellow.

Keep a watch on it if the discharge ever changes like having blood in it or is brownish then you need to go to the doctor right away because it could be an infection of some sort. Many women freak out, I included, and go to the doctor anyways. When you are pregnant this can happen also. I am actually going to the doctor tomorrow for my pap and I was going to ask him about this because it has been happening to me for about 2 years and I have always wondered. I will let you know what he says!
