I will say that I think milk leakage is abnormal and something you should see your doctor about.  You do have a doctor, right? ;)

Not even OTC? I mean I could understand if brand names and/or dosages were mentioned but this seems a little much. ::)

I think self-medication, even if it's OTC herbal supplements, can be very dangerous and thus unwise, especially if you're taking the large amounts that would be required to make physical changes.  It all has to go through your liver, no matter who sold it to you.  And with many of these supplements, you cannot be certain of what's really in the pills you're taking.

If you are getting leakage from your nipples, especially if you're only taking OTC hormone supplements, I think you should get to an MD very soon before any long term damage results, Valery.  This is NOT usual and could perhaps be a sign of a serious condition.  Of course, I can't say that for sure which is why I agree with Melissa on seeing a doctor.  He or she will know wht's really going on and what to do about it.

I've seen alot of info on when nipples begin to hurt, what I was wondering was, For how long do they hurt?  How long will I be putting up with this?  Gah!  I leep leaning/bumping against them -  OUCH!!   :o

  I'm probably 4 years on HRT now...sheesh doesn't seem that long but I still go through the "nipple pain" stages occasionally.  Last month I skipped an injection and when I started back up it was like beginning HRT over again (nipple pain wise).   

  If it's still happening 4 years later I don't know how long it may last....I do know that my size has continued to slowly increase over the years which is contradictory to what is normal.  I'm not complaining though LOL.....and on that note, please, ladies do your self examinations.  I know I get lazy about doing them but it is SO important.  I have a little diagram that shows how to properly do a breast exam that I got from the Komen Foundation.  It shows and describes how to do the exam correctly and probably more importantly it hangs on a door knob so every time I go into my closet it forces me to think about the exam.  You can order a free copy of these BSE (breast self-exam) cards from www.komen.org (I think this is a legal link to post...if not please remove it and I will adjust to make it so).

Gosh...I don't know if I have an intersex condition. But mine are always erect, and sometimes painful. I wonder now what the HRT Will do. I'm getting close to starting it.

It took about 2 months or so for me. Unfortunately that's all I ever got from HRT.
Trying to take it one day at a time :)

Mine started about the 2nd month but my breast buds were huge. They were very large.

I was on a low dose of E for about five yrs. almost 20 yrs. ago. No andro blockers.  Breast buds developed within 4 mos. tingling and soreness as well.  Then the sensitivity stopped.  I started a higher dose regimen in March.  Have had no reactions like the 1st time. I am beginning to think that since I already had my "2nd puberty" I may not get a 3rd. The new regimen includes andro blockers & progesterone and I am hoping for new development, but alas I'm still waiting. I have referenced my recent estradiol lab results which were 33.2 pg/ml and I was surprised to learn that this level is indicative of a post-menopausal female.  In addition, it is also a level that is consistent with the levels of a cis male.  Baffled by this!  Will test again before the end of the month and see my endo in early Aug.  Although, I am in my late 60's feel like I will need my E level to be in the 70-90 range before I will see any new growth and development. Will see what the Dr. says!

I was on spiro for two months before I started estrogen. Itchiness came first, then the sensitivity. I guess a new type of sensitivity, as mine were always sensitive. (Aren't everybody's?) I actually had girl nipples after a month of just spiro. I'm a skinny lady, but I got boob growth within three days of estrogen.

I'm nearing 5months (in 5days) and my breast growth doesn't seem all that significant. :(  My nipples have not changed really, a little bit of puffiness but no change increase in diameter.  Really hoping things start to change.

There hasn't been a day since I started where my pain/tenderness was so bad that the slightest thing would hurt.

I was low dose the for the first three months, got my blood work done.  My endo doubled my E dosage (still low dose IMO) but the E is doing its job and my T and E levels are definitely both moving in the right direction.  Just haven't seen quite the changes I thought I would.

I've seen far greater changes "down town", that's for sure!

I have been on hormones on and off for the last 15 years.  There seams to be kind of flash back effect. My body seams memorizing past estrogen intakes. I am on the 8th day now and my nipples hurting like never before. The worst time is actually in the afternoon to the evening. Once I am in bed and massage my breasts it seams ease quite a bit. - I wonder if I will eventually start lactating?
The first few day I always have strong morning erections and fluid discharge. By now there are no more erections and 
the fluid is very small and watery no more lubricants.
My focus has completely shifted to my breasts. There where moments a few days ago that I felt almost orgasmic by touching my areola's and nipples.

I believe for me it was somewhere around 2 weeks....not sure why I started feeling the pain so early, just did.  Prob 3 weeks before I noticed a physical change and 4 weeks before it was definate.  By 6 weeks there was a huge difference...

I am using bio-identical hormones and around one week started to feel tenderness, then outright pain by week two! I am an A cup (48 band size) and it feels like I am rushing at B cup size, I am not out yet so this is a bit of a conundrum! :)  However, it is wonderful to feel my nipples perked up and tender!  I lowered my usage for a few days out of fear and it subsided, but now back to regular strength and starting hurt again - seat belts are the devil's tool!  Yet I DO LOVE the pain, it just reinforces the breast growth that is happening and makes feel like myself!

Love and Hugs, Marci

Thank you all so much for sharing.  I started today, and my nipples became erect within 3 hours after taking the pill! Wow!  I am going to enjoy the ride!

Mine started in the 4th week, then puffy areolae after that for a few weeks.  I have golfball size breastbuds now after 3 months.
Hugs, Jess

I remember having questions like these. After about four weeks for me I noticed considerable sensation in my nipples.
