I was in the shower last night and I noticed that my normally pale pink nipples were dark purple!

I tried looking it up online but all I came across was pregnancy. I don't know if I am pregnant. It is unlikely, but not impossible. I don't want to jump to conclusions!
HELP!

"Holy dark areolas, Batman!" Not only are your breasts tender, but now it looks like they're changing colors before your eyes! Don't worry — and don't run out to get your eyes checked. A normal sign of pregnancy is for the area around the nipple (a.k.a. the areola) to darken in hue during pregnancy and even to increase in diameter somewhat. The color change can start as early as a week or two after conception, due to the pregnancy hormones surging through your body. You may also notice an increase and enlargement in the tiny bumps on the areola (called Montgomery's tubercles, in case you need to know)."

Signs of Pregnancy

But I am guessing that it is still too early to test..

When is your period due? When did you have sex? If your period is late, then try testing. If not, then yes, it would be too early to test.

But is pregnancy the only thing it could be? That's all I could find. I just had my period the 5th of September, and had sex the 9th of September, and before that, on the 29th of August.and when I bled on the 5th, it was 34 days since my last period, where I don't ever go over 29 days. So I am confused and don't want to waste a test because I am being paranoid!
