Question Boobies still hurting and growing, side effect?

I know I discussed this before on another thread. They started growing when I went on Lexapro on May 24. Then I stopped taking the Lexapro and was switched to Wellbutrin. (going on 4 weeks) But they are still large, they did not go down to normal. My weight is the same, so I'm not getting fat without knowing.
I know what question pops up, yes, I did get my periond, and I did take a preg test (on my own). Nothing, no such luck.
So, could it be a side effect or something else is wrong. Any input?
I have heard that it happens, but I don't believe that people can get their period while pregnant.
I don't mind them being big. (I had to order larger bras on the internet, gives me an excuse to shop) But they hurt sometimes, like something bites from the inside, then it goes away.
Sorry, but it bugs me not to know, and I feel stupid going to the medics for that, they get serious stuff there.
Thanks
Strawberry

Re: Boobies still hurting and growing, side effect?

Hi, Strawberry My daughter is on Risperdal and they said that one of the side effects would be and increased producion of prolactin which would enlarge her breasts and possibly cause milk production (lactation). From my knowledge, I do not believe this is a side effect of Wellbutrin or Leaxapro but I may be mistaken!! BTW....I had to laugh at your other thread when they wanted to check your new bras that you ordered!!

I just recently learned that there is a form of Breast Cancer called IBC (Inflammatory Breast Cancer) which doesn't show up on a mammogram. A woman will notice something like a bug bite and then the breasts get larger....I just wanted to alert you to this...not that this is happening in your case but just thought it was worth mentioning.

Anyway....I hope that you figure things out. Take care and keep us posted as to when you get those new bras and whether they cleared security

Re: Boobies still hurting and growing, side effect?

First off - Please Pardon Ben's Absence. He has had his head where it doesn't belong...

Second off ~ WOW am I glad I saw this thread, today !!!

I'd always suspected that the "meds" had enhanced the size of my man-boobs (and sensitivity) - and FINALLY some other evidence to support it (shy of a man-bra or "bro" as Kramer framed it)...

NOW what to do ???

My nipple surrounds are SO hairy...

Just isn't becoming, in my book !!!



~ Ben (overly sensitive in a LOT of areas, of late)...

Re: Boobies still hurting and growing, side effect?

Hey Ben, missed you! You still make me laugh because of the way you write, thanks!
Sorry about this happening to you, I did not know it could happen to a guy until Mslainie said something similar happened to her son.
Now, how is it that this happens and we are on diffferent medications? This is wierd.
I'm thinking, if the company who makes my Wellbutrin finds out, maybe they'll market it in a different name for "breast enhancement" and charge people a lot of money. I just learned that Zyban is the same thing, just marketed to smokers.
You think?
Sorry, but you gotta laugh a little.
Well, maybe now you can tell your doctor that it's not your imagination, and he can help you somehow.
I myself don't mind, but I was wondering what was causing it. I feel better knowing.
Thanks
