starting from the fourth month of pregnancy, but that's an average, and it's not technically "milk"; it's a thick yellowish fluid called colostrum
according to wikipedia, real milk isn't produced until after giving birth.
an article really worth reading, especially the "lactation without pregnancy" part

The part about watching live videos sounds sketchy, but I have heard it said that a new mother who is still lactating can/will eject milk from her breasts if she hears the sound of the human baby's cry. No clue if this is pseudoscience or what, but what I will say is, I think this would only work for a woman who is already lactating. In other words, I think the baby crying elicits the let down of milk (via oxytocin), not the production of milk (via prolactin). As far as I know, the only way to induce lactation artificially in a woman who has never produced breastmilk before is via hormone supplementation. But I've always been fascinated in / wanted to learn more about other possible means by which to elicit milk synthesis and milk let down in women.
When you think about evidence for the induction of lactation in a non-lactating woman, it's true that one thing which comes to mind is the fact that we have tons of stories from antiquity of orphaned babies being adopted by families and raised into fine young men or women. For that to happen, it means that the adoptive mother either had to have already been lactating (e.g. she had another baby of her own, or maybe she was a whetnurse) or else lactation was induced secondary to the boy's/girl's adoption. What I'd be interested to know is what empirical evidence exists for the induction of lactation in adoptive mother who have never lactated before and who do not use any hormonal supplements or other 20th-century medications to get them started.
Also, the article's almost misleading about the name "colostrum" but it saves itself in the second part of the three-part lactation cycle. Colostrum is most famously the name for the milk a mother gives to her baby during the first few weeks after pregnancy. It's the milk you hear about all the time in the news, the milk which has immunoglobulins to help protect the baby from pathogens. By convention, pre-partum breastmilk would also be called "colostrum" -- the etymology of the word means "first milk" (source) -- but if you asked somebody on the street "What's colostrum?", if he knows he's probably going to answer that it's the milk you see during the first few weeks post-partum.
If you are a woman or you know one who is interested in promoting her own lactation and improving her health at the same time, check out fenugreek.

heh this is funny because i once asked a girl (a woman, if you prefer) if this is true because it sounds a lot like an urban legend.
she answered that it's half true, and she said it's something like when you hear and see running water and feel the need to pee.
don't call me moron: i'm just reporting what she said
Whats the smell of this liquid and how does it taste like?
Regarding "lactation without pregnancy"... It is said "Lactation can be induced by physical stimulation" like sucking the nipples often... if thats the case howcome pornstar do not have milk? Their Nipples are sucked and caress most of the time..
Does women become sexual excited when breast feeding? And also how sensitive is a women nipple compare to men?
Thanks
