Title: Should I be concerned..hard tender nipples!!!!
Post by: flower on September 19, 2014, 11:04:59 AM
Hi Ladies,
I appreciate previous replies about my starting on Oestrogel 80g (2 squirts daily) and 350m Micronor.  I have been good for the 2 months I have been using it. NO sweats at all.  But the past week I have got hard nipples!! (hardly have any boobs) they are also a little tender.  Is this something I should worry about ? to me its a small price to pay for no other symptoms but I don't know.  I will have to go back to Dr. in a couple of weeks to get more HRT but the Dr who gave it me was a one off locum and others are just a waste of space and more like male salesmen who are just totally disinterested or a very pedantic unconcerned female I don't like so I need to arm myself with info before I go back.  Anyone else experienced this? or think its abnormal
Thanks x

How were your breasts/nipples during the years you menstruated?  You could have a chat with a Pharmacist at your local chemist - does the leaflet with the medication mention nipple changes?

Never thought of that, yes I think I had tender boobs but its strange to get hard tender nipples so many years later but it is a different hrt preperation. Thanks I will speak to pharmacist who I know is helpful  x
