Milk secretion, or lactation, typically occurs in individuals who have given birth and are biologically capable of producing milk, such as females of mammals. In the case of virgin females, particularly in humans, milk production is generally not possible without hormonal stimulation associated with pregnancy and childbirth. However, some rare cases may involve hormonal imbalances or medical conditions that could lead to lactation without prior pregnancy.
