both of my breasts are extremely tender to the touch. my son can't give me a hug without it hurting. i am not pregnant and i don't sleep on my back. also, my nipples stay erect and have become a deeper red then normal. is this something i should be worried about, or are my hormones just going crazy? thanks!

My breasts usually don't start to get tende until a week or the same week I'm about to begin my period im not supposed to start my period for 3 more weeks and my breasts have been really tended I don't think there growing... Any advice or comments as to why this might be happening ?

Since i began taking it i have realized everyday my breasts are SORE! I really like the bc that im on so I don't want to switch. If its not the bc any one have any thoughts or suggestions on why else they could be? I am not pregnant either.

I appreciate the feedback. the thing is, my breasts aren't tender. I remember them being sore with my other pregnancies, but I don't remember when that started. why is first morning urine stronger??? Is it because most people "hold it" all night. I'm wonderingbecause I do not. I get up 1-2 times in the night for the bathroom. I swear I have an "old lady bladder". Will this make any hormone less potent in the am?

Why are my breasts so sore for so long? My period is due soon but its been 31 days since last period. My estrogen to high? My Progesterone to low? Can you buy supplements for both over the counter? in stores? Thanks I'm 29 years old with 3 kids.

So I took that within the first 12 hours, when it is most effective. I got little side effects, however about a week later my breasts seem a bit swollen and tender to touch. I know im due for my next period in a couple of days, but just wondering if it is anything to worry about? I do get tender breasts before my period, and I think I may just be a hypochondriac.

Sore, tender and swollen breasts with enlarged areola...are symptoms of pregnancy! Not sure if you are TTC or not, but if there's any chance you could be pregnant (have had sex) and your period is due or late, I'd take a HPT if I were you!

I'm assuming I'm ovulating right now since I had a period two weeks ago but the last few months I noticed my breasts, in particular the nipples, will really hurt and be so tender that I can't bear to touch them even with clothes. I can't stand the shower to touch them either. I don't know why I've only noticed this the last few months. Why would they be so much more sensitive now? I am 43, healthy, non-smoker. And no, I'm not pregnant! And yes, I do know that for sure.

this isn't normal for me and i'm a little worried that i was pregnant and miscarried without knowing i was pregnant, but that doesn't explain why my breasts and nipples are just becoming sore. it also doesn't explain the nausea and dizziness that i'm still experiencing. so, here are my questions. could i still be pregnant even if the test was negative? and why did i spot when it's not normal? and, why do my nipples feel like someone is holding a close line pin on them?
