Why are my nipples hurting?

Question: I am on birth control and have about 12 more days before my period should start. This is not normal for me. Maybe a few months ago it happened but not lately. Right now my nipples are not out but they and the areola hurts and even worse when they come out. Sometimes during or before my period I squeeze them to check that the fluid is normal but I have done this before and never experienced sore nipples. I just want to know what other possibilities it could be for why they hurt.

Answers:
Have you been taking any other medications for a prolonged period of time? Sometimes extended use of medications can cause your nipples to become very sensitive and painful to touch. Check with your doctor to see if your birth control pills are the culprit.

Good luck!
