Itchy nipples during period

Common Questions and Answers about Itchy nipples during period

itchy

im pretty sure this is normal i had/have itchy nipples at the begging and again now. i think its cuz your bobbies/nipples are growing and your skin is stretching and it gets very irratated.

itchy nipples is normal during your entire pregnancy especially at the begginig though because your entire boob is growing along with your nipple so it stretches the skin sometimes breaking your skin and causing irritation and itchness and stuff so thats normal i wouldnt worry about it. im not to sure about the dry vagina though.......

I squeezed my right nipple because I felt a little dampness when I was scratching the itchy nipple. WHat is this??? I am 41, and NOT pregnant. took a preg test (I am on my period NOW - last day or so). HELP!

I would doubt cancer at her age .... inverted nipples occur due to something in the tissue beneath the nipple that is pulling the nipple inward. This doesn't necessarily mean that the problem is cancer .... it could be any number of things. Some women have inverted nipples for years for no apparant cause. If there is an itching problem then it is probably some type of skin irritation since the skin on the breast is the same as skin on any other part of the body.

I have a question regarding some sort of substance that seems to periodically accumulate on my nipples. Its not a discharge, and there is no pain; its probably more like an accumulation-sort of whitish, very small amount, not even a liquid, and can just be picked off. (Sounds kind of gross, I know). I think it generally occurs a little before my cycle. I have had battles with excema, and have heard of nipple excema, and wonder if this could be related.

Hey Ladies Just a quick one Had EXTREMELY painful nipples for over a week and tested BFN. Since then the pain has gone away but i still havent got AF (Which isnt unusual as i havent had my period since coming off the pill at the begining of sept) Has anyone ever heard of a woman having VERY VERY VERY sore nipples that have stopped being sore but have still been PG or does this just mean its a no-go?

Hi, okay - my nipple situation started in late july they were very painful to the touch and itchy and a little crusted looking. i went to the doctor and i was told it was celluitis so i went on antibiotics for 10 days. a couple weeks later it was still there (not as painful and no discharge ever) i went to the doctor again and they took a sample of the discharge they could get from squeezing the nipple (the right one was worse) the results came back as a mild case of staph infection.

During the activities she licked both of my nipple and my Scrutom 10 Seconds. I also licked her nipple for about 10 Seconds the same. 1. is nipple licking consider as HIV risk ? ( I licked her and didn't taste anything) 2. is Scrutom being sucked/Licked post any HIV infection? ( there was no cut or open sore on my Scrutom) 3. is it problem that i did not clean the area where she perform on me? 4. should i get test for that? Thank you for your time to read thruogh my problem.

I use hydrocortizone cream to help with the itch. The itch seems to coincide with my mentral cycle somewhat - less itchy during my period and then after it is finished the itch reappears. Was reading some of the posts and it now concerns me when the response seems to always talk of cancer. The rash is present on the nipple and around the nipple on the brown part of the breast. Your suggestion is to see a doctor about this?

Sometimes it's just one nipple and sometimes both. It happens periodically throughout the day, every day. Sometimes they stay that way for long periods of time before changing back. I don't do anything to cause these changes that I'm aware of. I have actually watched them for a few minutes at a time and seen the transformation. There isn't any pain, but sometimes they itch. What could be causing this? I have searched the net high and low for answers but have found nothing.

I have had a thick greenish (dark) discharge from my left nipple for as long as i can remember. My nipples tend to get itchy and tender each month...I have previously breastfeed 3 children and the youngest is 6...Last year i had a ultrasound and mammogram as i have a strong family history of breast cancer...

I had an itchy rough spot on my left nipple. It seemed to go through stages. First, it was normal. Then the spot would raise. Then it would itch uncontrollably and ooze a clear liquid. And finally, it would be a dry spot. Then it would repeat itself again. My gyno. sent me to a dermotologist who came me some cream. It helped for a short time but then it came back. The dermotologist lifted the dry spot and scraped it off. He ran tests but it did not show cancer.

well it's winter time and people tend to get more itchy this time of year in general. but if you are talking about your belly being itchy, it's probably from the skin stretching. Just kept moisturizing!!

My period is 4 days late, I took a pregnancy test the second day it was late and it was negative and now it is the 4th day and still no period my boobs and nipples are very sore and tender and they feel so heavy, I have been very tired, I have some little cramping, some white discharge, I also have been going to the bathroom a lot and have been eating a lot also I have some back pain right before I go to bed could I be pregnant should I go to the docters?

Like Jenster84, in addition to the itchy left palm I often get an itchy sensation in my right nipple. It drives me crazy! I only experience the itchy palm when I am up (as in not lying in bed) and mostly when I am sitting at my desk. Years ago I experienced a problem with both of my hands itching - to the point that I would make them bleed when I scratched. That finally went away and didn't have any problems until recently when my left palm started itching.

normally when i get my period i cramp very badly and then the next day i get my period during which cramps are horrible and i puke . this month ( jan ) i didnt get cramping arounf the time of my period nor did i feel it comming . i thought it was maybe switching dates . it is now the end of the month and im feeling these symptoms . i NEVER spotted before a period nor have i had sore nipples . so im convinced im pregnant .

I JUST WANTED TO SHARE MY SITUATON. TODAY IS 4/4/08 M LAST PERIOD WAS 2/27/08. THE THING IS WHEN I GOT MY PERIOD IN FEB I WAS SPOTTING FOR T FIRST 3 DAYS THEN IT DECIDED TO COME DOWN. NOW I AM EXERIENCING DISCHARGE. IT DOESN'T HAVE A COLOR IT' CLEAR FROM WHAT I SEE. CAN OMEONE HELP ME OUT. BY THE WAY I HAVEN'T TAKEN A TEST YET.

My periods were normal during my youth, then got a bit odd after my first one, then stabilized and went odd after my second one, stabilizing again shortly thereafter. I have had a significant amounts of stress in my life, but my body acclimated and my periods were regular. My last one was November 16, 2007. It is now February 21, 2008 and no sign of my period. I do not have any traditional pregnancy symptoms other then extreme weight gain and emotional overload.

-Nausea (not throwing up, but enough that i ran to the toilet) -Dizzy spells -Frequent urination (during the day near enough every hour not so much at night) -Heavy boobs -Bigger nipples with bumps around areolas (nipples range in size through out the day) - Movement in abdomen near enough everyday (i have seen the "kicks" on a few occasions) - EXTREMLY TIRED -Insomina on some nights -Vivid dreams -Clear odourless water like fluid coming from vagina occasionally - Days wh

light cramping, dehydrated, frequent headaches, feeling tired and sick, moody, tender breast and sore nipples, and I missed a period last month in june but it showed up about 4 days early in this month of july but it wasn't a normal period. It was light bleeding, very little to no cramping, it lasted for 2 days and the color went from dark red to brown. Ive been feeling small and mild movements in my lower stomach and its swollen as if im bloated and my uterus is swollen, noticeably.

i had my period a almost two weeks ago, I had sex during my period and after, now two weeks later I started to bleed after sex and when i pee....sometimes it will just spot during the day. I am also very bloated and my boobs hurt and look bigger....what do you think???

i did a pregnancy test January 20th and 22nd both were NEGATIVE - What should i do..? I have some cramping (feels alittle like period cramping ) nipples are alittle sensitive lower back is achey I am bloated! Does anyone know what is going on with me?

In march, I had the period like symptom. During the time I should of been ov, we did not try, due to me not feeling very well. This month, the same thing. My period was suppose to start on the 4th. Once again I had the brown spotting with a pink discharge. Only during the I used the bathroom. Nothing else and nothing heavy. If you got any new info on this I would appreciate some feedback. Thanks. I thought I was the only one and going crazy!

Back aches have continued, along with always crying and bad headaches on and off, constipation and gas, and my right nipple has been EXTREMELY itchy.....but that's it ! This is really weird for me I didn't want to test because I figured mother nature mught be playing a cruel trick on me and decided to save my money til next AF was due. Well, I had done an ovulation calendar previous to this and it gave me my most fertile days etc..

I can feel like 4 nodes left in my breast, that means I will have 4 new abcsesses in the near future...usually they become abcsesses during my period...do you have the same? Thanks!

I know the itchy sore nipple symptom all too well lol. Its torture. My bf looks at me like i am crazy when i am walking around with ice packs in my bra. I just sigh and say you will never know.

I am on my period now and I always get bumpiness in my breasts during my period. The reason I am concerned is because of the location. I have no problems with the nipple, I do not and have never had discharge or any itch or rashes there The bump does not have a center. When I apply heat to the bump, it seems to shrink quite a bit, but then it comes back up after a while. I have never given birth or lactated (we adopted my precious baby girl :).

It seems a bit tight, and not as relaxed as my left nipple. Also, if it helps, I've been having problems with my period recently (which I'll probably mention in a different forum) such as itching/burning 'down there', itchy red spots on face, canker sore, etc. It seems that the problems won't ever stop, and I'm wondering if this painful lump has anything to do with that. Oh, and my period should be expected on the 6th of December.

Then I also developed some rashes (pimple like, rather reddish-non-itchy) on my back, which lasted for considerable longer period....may be 2 months. I didnt develop any fever, except once during this period of 15 months. I also put up some weight as well...in terms of bodily health I do feel fit...yet woried about HIV exposure and risk levels...please guide me through...should I get tested? I didnt perform any other sexual act during this encounter. I dont drink or even smoke.

I tested 11 days ago and got a BFN but nipples have stopped hurting completely so dont wanna get my hopes up and test only to get BFN again, especially when im feeling this fragile :( Im thinking if AF hasnt come after the new year i ill go to the doctors, im sick of feeling abnornal. As iv mentioned before my hubby goes away on business and the only times we could have possibly concieved the past month are 27th/28th November and 4th/5th December.
