How long do sore nipples last after a positive ovulation ?
I got a positive ovulation test on September 16 the very next day on the 17 I started to have the worse sore nipples ever. Iv had them since the 17 today is the 25 and they are still so sore I mean I can't touch them they hurt to have the shower water even hit them. Also my boobs are swollen could this be a good sign or am I getting my hopes up? Has anyone els had this happen if so how log did yours last? Also I'm noticing a lot of discharge sorry for to much information

An increase in Progesterone after ovulation is what causes sore breasts and nipples. Sore breasts and nipples can be both a sign of ovulation and an early sign of pregnancy. Unfortunately, there's really no way to tell which your symptoms are indicating until you either miss or start your period.
For me, during my BFP cycles, my nipples were sensitive almost immediately (which was the norm for me) but my breasts didn't start hurting until about a week later on 8DPO. I got my first BFP on 11DPO.
Unfortunately, as I said before, it could mean either. But it's always a good sign, and you're not out until AF shows up!
Good luck and baby dust!
