Abstract

The case report is prompted by the highlighting during time-limited psychotherapy of the unique psycho-physiologic aspects of galactorrhea. In contrast to the more traditional psychosomatic diseases, this case of pseudonursing, like those of pseudocyesis, proved to be unusually responsive to a relatively superficial exploration of dynamics and underlying depression.
