Hey guys. I’m in peri and am on progesterone 300mg nightly and estradiol 0.025mg patches twice weekly. My nipples are unbelievably sore. Seriously they feel like fresh bruises, even the pressure of fabric from a shirt or bra can be painful. My GYN said this is common with progesterone and recommended evening primrose pills, but like an idiot I didn’t ask what strength or how often. Do you have any experience with this or advice? Please and thanks - it’s making me extremely cranky 😬
Go to the baby aisle of a store and check out the breastfeeding section. I had creams and ice packs and other items for nipple soreness. I can’t speak to your specific pain but maybe something there will help.
Oh that’s a good idea! I didn’t have kids so I never would’ve thought of that. Thanks!
