    Sensitive nipples
    I am 21 years old, good health, on birth control pills, long term relationship...

    Today is the 2nd week of my birth control pack, and my nipples are oddly sensitive. I have heard that they get more sensitive as your period comes nearer, but that's all I've heard about sensitive nipples.

    Why do you think they're sensitive right now?

    Could it be that they are GROWING? :D

    Ah sensitive nipples are a possible symptom of pregnancy! Better get a pregnancy test. It would be unlikely to think that contraceptive pills would bring on this symptom.

    Do you other symptoms? Swollen breasts? Heaviness in the lower belly?

    I have been having some bloated-ness and digestive irregularity but that irregularity is actually regular for me...

    And if this counts, the week before, I lost a couple pounds due to trying to portion control... but alas, my normal pudgy stomach came back, or so I think.

    I have been breaking out more than usual, but I assumed it's because I'm dealing with some emotional issues...

    I have so many excuses and reasons, do you still think I could be pregnant? Thank you so much!

    Hi Pheebs, get a pregnancy test NOW! I can't tell you if you are pregnant, you need a hormonal check of your urine through a pregnancy test.

    Are your nipples still sensitive/tingling? And are your breasts feeling swollen?

    Breaking out can be a symptom of hormonal imbalance or pregnancy, again you need to check for pregnancy, if this turns out to be negative, I'd go to the doc and ask for a hormonal imbalance check 9this will most probably be a blood test)

    Cheers
    Best wishes
