Q: itchy red breasts

Both of my breasts have been itching for about 2 weeks now, with no relief from anti-itch creams and lotions. My first thought was that it was related to my implants (saline), but they are 8 years old and have never caused problems. So would this be a dermatology problem or more serious porblem such as IBC? It is not the nipple, rather the tops and outside of each that itch. They are tender, but my period is coming up, so that may be the case. Could it be hormonal, as I just turned 40 this year? Just wondering if anyone else has had this experience. The itching is at it's worst in the middle of the night. Thanks for any input!

Hormonal change can be the cause. Talk to gyn about this. They may have an answer for you. Have you tried oatmeal baths or lotions? Aveeno makes a lotion that is wonderful for itchy skin.
