Question

Breast pain way too early any idea why?

This month is already a little bit weird I believe I ovulated October 16 or very close to that... normally my boobs would start really hurting the last week of my AF... last month it started to hurt a little on 3dpo... but this month it started to hurt October 12 (4 day before what I believe when I ovulated)... I know it not a pregnancy sign. Being I know you can't be pregnant before you ovulate... but why is this happening... can it be an ovulation thing or what? They don't hurt a little it's alot like having a hard time sleeping hurt. They feel very heavy too. It's making me question if my AF is coming any minute but I know it's way too early. Has anyone had this happen this early or know what is going on?

I think you need to call your provider. If the pain impacts your sleeping, it is significant and only a medical professionals can tell you for sure what is happening.

Good luck

Breast tenderness is driven by estrogen levels and hormone imbalances. High estrogen causes swelling and tenderness.
When I was messing around with high doses of Clomid, years ago, my estrogen-progesterone balance would be thrown way off and my boobs would be so swollen and sore I couldn't move my arms. If it's really worrying u, hit up ur Dr for some testing.
There's an article online about location of soreness and where u are within a cycle. I'll see if I can find it.
Good luck! =))

Its the same pain as that I get a week before my AF. I had that since I was a teenager... it's normal for breast to hurt when your hormones changes. I was just questioning why my hormones would make my chest hurt before my ovulation because I never had that. I'm not overly worried about it I was just wondering. I was trying explain it wasn't just a little sore/sensitive. By the way I'm still getting sleep and when I'm out, I'm out. I just changed my position or put a pillow in between my boobs and I pass out (just like when I'm closer to my period). I do have a larger chest so this might be a bigger chest issue or something I don't know. Sorry if I was not clear before but ya again I'm not worry I'm just wondering

Dakotagurrl thanks for the info if you find the article I would love to read it ???? I'm not too worried it was more of a wondering being it was different than normal. Who know maybe I ovulated before I thought I did. I'm not testing just using flo app (an app that look at your periods and predict your fertile days) so who know

This is the one I remember reading years ago when I was questioning the pain due to the clomid. https://drnatashaturner.com/estrogen-and-breast-tenderness/

There are quite a few others that go way more into detail, if u really like reading.
Have u tried a hpt recently? Maybe that wasn't af before. Stranger things have happened, esp if ur not going all crazy with tracking.

Thank you I haven't tested yet... I was thinking testing later this week with a dollar store test just because I don't want to waste 20$ on a test that might be to early

I hear ya! We pay out the ass here. I won't try to suck u into an addiction, , but Amazon sells 60pks for $25 if u ever wanna test a little more freely. Just sayin'!

I'm truly hoping I won't need 60 test. I know I probably being way too optimistic

Oh no no, I didn't mean it as it would take u a long time to get pregnant, more for serial testing once u get the BFP. Most of us aren't capable of just peeing on one stick and calling it a day lol. I test daily til about 21dpo if I get a BFP. Having 60 tests just makes it easier on the bank account. It's a sick addiction really...
