Question 1

i'm having like little bumps around my nipples and their getting a little pointy , does that mean i could be pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Hard to guess: It can be hard to tell if a woman is pregnant because some of the symptoms seen in early pregnancy can also happen in non-pregnant women. A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result if done correctly. One can test about 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. An Ob-Gyn doctor can evaluate any persistent or worrisome symptoms.

Question 2

i'm not pregnant but my nipples hurt a lot always erect and have bumps what does this mean  ?

Accepted Answer

Nipple erection: This can occur for many reasons other than pregnancy including just sexual thoughts, poorly fitted bras.  It is also seen with elevated prolactin, so check for nipple discharge.

Question 3

i'm not pregnant an i've never had a child but i have light red pinkish bumps on my nipples what does this mean do i need to go to a doctor?

Accepted Answer

See below: These are symptoms that could be potentially serious.  You should discuss these with your physician.  He/she will thotoughly evaluate you and let you know what's going on.

Question 4

my breast are sore and i have started noticing bumps around my nipples could i be pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Menstrual cycle: If you have had unprotected sexual intercourse do a home pregnancy test; breast issues are not diagnostic. It might be a great idea to get on birth control pills or use condoms.

Question 5

i bled a week early. my breasts are sore & i've noticed way more bumps around my nipples. neg hpt  day of expected period. could i still be pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Maybe. Maybe not.: One can re-test in a week. An early menstrual period may be caused by changes in hormone levels, which can be due to anxiety, stress, overworking, intense exercise, fatigue, or excessive weight gain/loss. If pregnancy happens, a bit of spotting sometimes occurs 9-14 days after conception and may seem to a woman that she&#x27;s starting an early period. If symptoms continue she can see an ob-gyn doctor.

Question 6

there are bumps on nipples, does this indicate i'm pregnant or not?

Accepted Answer

Small bumps with: Central white  on nipples and aerolas are likely montgomery glands. They can become larger during pregnancy ; lactation but that is not diagnostic of pregnancy. So, take a home pregnancy test if you have missed your period. Take care.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Bumps : Small bumps on the areola may represent normal glands or changes in the nipple from friction for example . A dermatologist or ob-gyn should evaluate and diagnose the condition.

Question 8

im on nexplanon, its my third year w it. always was unlrotected never became pregnant. bumps around nipples are appering. does nexplanon wear off?

Accepted Answer

Nexplanon: Nexplanon is the most effective reversible birth control method. Failures are exceptionally rare. It is approved for 3 years of use and the levels do not wear off before that. After 3 years it should be removed and replaced if continued contraception is desired. It would not be related to bumps on the nipples. Schedule a virtual visit with a Healthtap  primary care doctor to evaluate those.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

You tell us: Physicians would never guess when diagnosing pregnancy. Your symptoms are not in any way diagnostic of pregnancy. But, if you have missed a period,you MUST do a pregnancy test.

Question 10

if you squeeze your nipple and a little white stuff comes out of the bumps, is that normal, or only with pregnant people?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: It can occur in benign conditions, but is most common with pregnancy. You must be seen by a physician for an exam and lab work to determine the cause and how to treat this. Until then, wear a tight fitting bra and avoid activity that may cause nipple stimulation.
