Guest guest Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 I found this online: " The two main hormones which are responsible for the tenderness of the breasts and the sensitivity of the nipples during pregnancy are progesterone and oestrogen. Progesterone aids the relaxation process of smooth muscles in the womb facilitate the healthy growth and development of the foetus. It also fuels the generation of breast tissue. The side effects of progesterone are, as mentioned above, breast tenderness as well as weariness, bloating, bone pain in the hip and pubic area. Oestrogen works side by side with oestrogen. The main function of this hormone is to aid the development of the foetus, mainly with the development of its organs as well as its sexual features. It also makes the body ready for breastfeeding by helping milk glands to develop and expanding the nipples. The side effects are as mentioned, breast and nipple sensitivity, mood swings, skin patches etc. " Hope that helps! > > Hey there..good news!

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Hey Cia,Glad to hear your specialist said things are okay! I'm sure that is a relief. As for the soreness of your breasts, how much estrogen were you using topically? If only a a tiny little dab, it shouldn't have affected you...but of course, our bodies are so different, you just never know. I hope you are feeling better.Take Care,ChelleHey there..good news!

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Well, I think it is interesting this started after you stopped using the estrogen because that is what estrogen does to me,it makes my breasts really sore before a period. I tried the estrogen creme before and it seemed to work for the vulva skin but I had to stop because it gave me lower abdominal cramps. My doctor at the time said it wasn't possible I was getting the cramps from the little bit of creme I was using but I tried it several times and it did the same thing everytime. I think I am very estrogen sensitive. All I can think of is maybe you still have extra estrogen circulating. I know that in traditional Chinese medicine they say that when your breasts swell and hurt like that that the liver is stagnant or overloaded so it can't process the hormones properly and you get things like sore breasts, PMS and irregular menstration.--- On Sun, 11/30/08, ciallf wrote: Subject: Sore Boobies!!To: VulvarDisorders Date: Sunday, November 30, 2008, 11:19 AM Hey there..good news!

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 My sister passed away with estrogen receptive breast cancer. Any additional estrogen should not be taken lightly. I think I am actually going to curtail my using this ointment because of this. Plus, the new doc I am seeing wasn't totally sold on this because of the breast cancer issue in my family CMake your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place.
