Sticky Clear Nipple Discharge

Hi, I am 18 years old. For the past couple of months I have had a pain in my left nipple. I squeezed it one day and some clear sticky discharge came out of it. I went to the doctor and said he could feel my breast bud and said I have Gynecomastia. Well I looked it up online about the clear sticky discharge and it said that it could be breast cancer. The nipple doesnt discharge unless I squeeze it, but when I do quite a bit comes out. I am going to the doctor at the end of the month, but I am wondering if any one of you has had this problem before or know the cause.

I am pretty hyper vigilant when it comes to my health. If your symtoms haven't improved by the time you see you dr, if it were me, i would ask doctor to do a culture swab. Also, if possible if not your knowlege, get a detailed breast cancer/ cancer history of your family. Mom, dad, grandparents aunts and uncle. But make sure you ask about a culture of the discharge.   Is this a general praticioner or an obgyn?
