What does it mean when your nipples are sore ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sore Nipples: Sore nipples are a common complaint among women. Although your period ended 12 days ago, you may be experiencing hormonal fluctuations. Fluctuating levels of the hormone estrogen may cause sore nipples. Yes, pregnancy can also cause sore nipples, but if you have your period recently, this may not be the case. Birth control pills may also cause sore nipples because they can also cause fluctuations.
