A member asked:

I had a medical abortion 7 weeks ago and have recently had sore breasts with dark nipples like in pregnancy but had the coil fitted is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hormonal imbalance: By coil do you mean an IUD? The color change on nipples may be due to hormonal changes and are normal. If you had unprotected sex before the placement of IUD, you may wish to do a pregnancy test, if you missed your period.
