Okay, I am almost 40 years old and have two kids.  I've been on the pill for years.  A couple of days ago my nipples became sooo painful it hurts to even make contact with them.  The strange thing is that my breasts in general do not seem sore or swollen.  I am right in the middle of my pack, so AF isn't due until the week after next.  My periods are still irregular.  Many times I seem to spot the week before AF and normally my periods are light if at all.  I haven't ever stressed any of this, but I am worried since I can't find a logical reason why this symptom has surfaced.  I am very tired, but my life is so busy that's normal. 


Any ideas?

Hi cupcake.


It's possible that you just had some hormone fluctuation that caused some nipple tenderness.
