When a woman lactates, does the milk come out of one hole, or many little ones?

Dodger asked:
I was always under the assumption that the whole tip of the nipple could give off milk. My fiance, who has lived on a dairy farm his whole life assumed that milk came out of one hole just like a cow.

I’ve tried finding a website on how a woman produces milk but I can’t find any. Please help!

There is more than one hole.
The glandular tissue is composed of the lobi, lobuli, and alveoli and resembles a bunch of grapes. There are between 15 and 25 lobes, arranged in a wheel spoke pattern in each breast. The lobuli are clusters of alveoli. The alveoli are the milk producing units of the breast. Individual alveoli empty into small lactiferous ducts that converge in each lobulus with several lobuli forming a lobe. The larger ducts of the lobe converge into a milk sinus under the areola and finally end at the nipple. There are 15-25 openings in the nipple corresponding to the internal lobes. Occasionally, one or more of the ducts may end at the areola and may leak milk during pregnancy and lactation. This is a normal variation.
