Can a switch from depo-provera to pills make my nipples sore
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure: Nipple pain is a side effect of Estrogen. Changing from a Progesterone only method such as Depo to an Estrogen and Progesterone containing birth control pill could trigger this side effect. Usually this resolves within 1-2 months. of use
