I really can't be pg. But my boobs feel fuller and they hurt for a couple of days now. If it lasts for a week I was going to see my OB. In the meantime, is there another reason??

hmm, I am on Mirena so I usually don't fluctuate. But I have been seeing some signs of peri menopause (I'm 48) so there definitely could be some fluctuations!!

I'm 46 and noticed this symptom the past couple of months AFTER my period. It is apparently a normal result of peri-menopausal hormonal fluctuations.

I'm on the mini-pill which is progesterone only too like the Mirena. I'm only 32 so I'm thinking it's not peri-menipause.
Do you have monthly periods on the Mirena? I still do with the mini-pill. You can still ovulate on the mini-pill and Mirena (lining is just too thin for implantation) so I figure if I'm ovulating my hormones must be fluctuating throughout the month.
Increased caffeine intake? I find that increased caffeine at certain times of the month leads to breast tenderness for me.
Mom to two amazing DDs ('07 & '09) and a fur baby.
Gluten free since Nov '11 after non-celiac gluten sensitive diagnosis. Have had great improvement or total elimination of: migraines, bloating/distention, heartburn, cystic acne, canker sores, bleeding gums, eczema on elbows, dry skin and scalp, muscle cramps, PMS, hair loss, heart palpitations, fatigue. I'm amazed.
I don't have periods with the Mirena--except maybe 2x a year. And one of the times was last year when I was on fall break with the kids. Which is where I am this year!! Think I better take "sanitary precautions" tomorrow.....
And thanks for understanding my go to panic of breast cancer. I know, I know, look for horses before zebras. But I can't help it some times!
