I was wondering if I should go to the doctor about it?
When being physically stimulated around the nipple I started lactating, is it normal?

When I started HRT, maybe in the first year, I had some lactation here and there, during stimulation or not. I would say depending on how long you've been on HRT it may be normal. However, it's always best to get advice from an actual doctor who would know more about other potential causes and if they're good or bad.

I think a little lactation is perfectly fine, unless of course it is bothering you or causing you discomfort. I would be ecstatic to start lactating.

Yeah. Completely normal. :)
But have a chat with your Dr. anyway. He might decide to adjust your hormones.

I found out I was lactating when my girlfriend's head popped up and she said "Uhm, sweetie...? You're leaking"
It was most common for me the first two months after I started estrogen. I already had budding and breast growth before I started E, from spiro and avodart alone.
One time I milked myself and a drop of blood was suspended in the clear lactation. So I don't do that anymore. The glands being full of fluid is also supposed to help swell their size permanently - at least it does during pregnancy. *shrug*
Just don't wear anything sheer and white without a bra.

I'm pretty sure it's just a normal side effect of female development but it's never happened to me.

it might be elevated prolactin, nothing big whoop yet (although I've never lactated a drop so I wouldn't know about the question other then what my medical education says)
