Q: sore breasts cause ?

Okay, I have had a baby before and everything was normal. As in I missed my period, felt a bit queasy, did the test and positive. Now I had my period on the 22nd and about a week ago my breasts became sore. Normally they are sore when I am about to get my period which is not for another week and a half. The left breast is more sore than the right. I did do a pregnancy test but of course it was negative (maybe too early). I heard that that people can get pregnant right after their period.

This is worrisome to me, I don't know if this is the start of a pregnancy or could it be breast problem such as breast cancer. I don't feel any lumps. Confused

Has anyone had this issue? I have been doing some research and I can't get any positive answers, I have an appointment with my GP but in the meantime I need to know if I am not alone

Certainly doesn't sound like cancer or anything, more like hormonal changes.

But, I'm not sure what you mean- so you missed your period, took one pregnancy test and it was positive, and you took another and it was negative?

If that's what happened, my guess is you probably are pregnant and the second test was a fluke (false negatives are more common than false positives) or perhaps you were pregnant and no longer are (this is common in early stages of pregnancies, not necessarily a miscarriage, some pregnancies just don't make it).

Or your cycle could just be all screwed up right now- which would explain the missed period, sore breasts, queasiness, etc.

Let me know what your gyno says!

My breasts get tender right around my fertile time and stay that way until I get my period. It didn't used to be that way, but now it is. Sometimes your cycle just fluctuates that way.
