Very Sore Nipples - Women's Health Message Board

Thought maybe some of you could shed some light on this recent development I've had.

I'd say three days ago my nipples started getting VERY sore.....Breasts aren't tender at all...it's just the nipples.

They haven't had any trama or anything more than light touching over the past week (Fiance was in town)...There's no discoloration that I can tell....and no discharge so I'm kinda at a loss.

I haven't started any new medication.....and this isnt' pre-period pain....I'm actually on a BCP that's affectively stopped my period. LOL...and even if AF is deciding to pay a visit...I've never had Breast/nipple pain with it before..

So...any thoughts as to what could be causing this? Or atleast on how to alleviate it?...

Thanks

Becky

Is there a chance you could be pregnant? Sore nipples can often be an early sign of pregnancy - even the best contraceptives can fail. You should get a test asap.

awwwwww don't tell me that I don't need that 2 months before the wedding LOL

while it's possible (no denying it....)....I sorta doubt it...I'm very good about taking my pill (which I know isn't 100%) And we still use condoms.....

for me to be preggers it would have had to of happened in mid Feb....and we didn't have any condom failure then.

But I guess (now that it's been mentioned I'll freak over it)....I'll give it a few more days then test....

Thankyou for the reply

Thats what I thought at 18 when the same thing happend to me, but I do have a friend who has gotten pregnant on 3 differnt types of birth control, you could do a home test right away just to rule it out ...
