The daughter of Tom and Lin Milano, she has a younger brother, Cory, who has acted in some of her movies. At age seven, after seeing the Broadway play, "Annie," she said, "I can do that." Her professional acting debut came one year later in the role of "July" in the very same Tony-winning Broadway musical. She spent over a year playing the role on tour before returning to New York to appear off-Broadway in the first American musical adaptation of "Jane Eyre." Her first film, at age 10, was with Danny Aiello in "Old Enough." Alyssa made her television debut in 1984 as "Samantha Micelli" in the ABC sitcom "Who's The Boss?" The series ran for eight years. She said, "It was a great way to grow up, but I was sad to see it end. It's like graduating high school when you're sad and excited at the same time." Milano took a regular series role on 14 April 1997 in Fox TV's "Melrose Place." In 1998 she was back on weekly television as Phoebe Halliwell in the Spelling produced "Charmed." She played in a number of made-for-television movies and in March 1998, starred in the Disney Original telefilm "Gold Rush." In 2000 she was featured in "Women of Charmed."

In December 1998 Milano was awarded $230,000 in a default judgment against a web site designer who allegedly posted nude pictures of her. In 2000 she caused a stir with her TV commercial for Candies perfume, which featured her in black-lingerie with a male companion. The "Anywhere You Dare" campaign was rejected by such stations as WB and FOX. Two of her Candies print ads were controversial as well. One shows a man perfuming Milano's cleavage, the other presents her standing before a medicine cabinet stocked with perfume and condoms. Both ads were turned down by youth-oriented magazines "Seventeen" and "Teen People." In 1993, Milano was engaged to "Double Dragon" star Scott Wolf, but their engagement was broken off.

As a political activist, Milano is known for her role in the MeToo movement. On 15 October 2017, Milano posted the message that re-launched what is known as the #MeToo movement, which was started in 2006 by Tarana Burke. According to Milano, a friend suggested that she post a message on her Twitter account encouraging survivors of sexual harassment and assault to post #metoo as a status update.
