At 38, three months after I stopped breast feeding my last child (which I'd done very successfully for 15 months), I was walking briskly in a local street. I was dive bombed by a magpie! The only time it's ever happened round here in 19 years. I ran away, flapping my arms above my head. When I slowed to a walk, and after some swear words, I suddenly noticed my right nipple felt wet. A quick inspection revealed it was bleeding. Went to the doctor, had my first mammogram and saw a breast surgeon who said it was probably a collapsed milk duct. 13 years later that breast had an IDC and two areas of DCIS. Nothing in the other one.
Interesting question!
