Trangender male to female producing milk after breast implants and premarin/provera

In rare instances this may indicate that you may have a pituitary hormone producing tumor. You should have hormone levels drawn and evaluated by a specialist.

Lactation in transgender

The hormones you are taking  may stimulate you to produce milk. You should get evaluated by your endocrinologist.
