Nipples, itchy & very sensitive

[FrancisAnn]

HRT for 3 months, Spiro & E patches & I just started Fin. pills a week or 2 ago.

My nipples have been burning, itchy & sensitive to any touch all day. Before it would come & go however this is the first time they have been real sensitive all day & now into the night. I'm very glad they are growing, not complaining.

However: Is this normal activity?   

[Jessica Merriman]

Totally normal sis! You will soon find out just how many things you run into every day. Congrats!!!

Yup, normal    Kinda like popping corn getting ready to pop

Thank you so much. One other question since you are more experienced than myself. Will they itch/burn 24/7 or will it come & go like before???

Hard to tell from person to person. The itchy came and went from time to time for me, but the sensitivity? Let's just say open doors carefully with plenty of distance from the girls, OK? Now I know why women's clothing is so soft, kind of has to be. You are in for some very new experiences dear. Instead of watching your 6 in the military, start watching your 12. Guys will watch your 6 for you!

OMG I know that feeling!

I just started month 4 today... the baby kicked me in the left one and I thought I was gonna die!  As far as the 6 goes... there seems to be a lag time between me leaving a room and my 6 leaving LOL

Kind of like being an open nerve in a sand storm isn't it? I love it, but darn! Forget water boarding of terrorist's, just shoot them full of "E" and put them in a room full of crazy cats with claws! Conflict over!!

Thanks, guess I'll be OK. Maybe my two little girls can be much larger by Christmas. I feel great.

Thanks for help, all girl friends.

My nipples are starting back to itch & burn this morning. It seems that the day after I change my little dot type E patches is when they react the most.

Has any one else experienced this??

The patches are used for 3 & 1/2 days & are suppose to release a even amount of E each day.

Thanks, they feel good I just wonder why so sensitive on some days & if it relates to a new E patch?

[Ms Grace]

I'd say that's very likely. The dose may be more or less even but no doubt fades a bit at the end of use and new ones are stronger/fresher for a few days. All very normal.

It's likely growing pains.  I get this problem all the time and it gets annoying.   If you try wearing a bra with soft padding, it can really help.

Usually the sensitivity occurrs when I am in a situation where I can't hold or massage my breasts. There have been too many grin and bear it moments lately. I am at about 4 months into HRT and it seems to have been constant after the first month. No Pain No Gain

I'm very happy & glad for the sensitivity.

I just wonder if these "Estradot" patches actually release an even amount of estrogen each day as stated & advertised? They work very well & are so easy to use.

I am on patches and I would say they are working fine. There is no mistaking the physical changes taking place. I feel very even, there are no big ups and downs for me. When I hit the "mid-week add a patch" I don't pull the old one off until the following add-on day. I figure there maybe some good stuff left on the patch that I don't want to waste. But they have been great for me.

Thanks, they are so nice & easy to use.
