Why do nipples become larger and more painful?

Many female friends have experienced enlarged and painful nipples. This is a gynecological disease that not only causes great physical harm to many of our female friends, but also brings great psychological distress. Many people are unwilling to accept this disease and are unwilling to seek effective treatments. As a result, the best time for treatment is missed. Let's first understand why nipples become enlarged and painful.

1. Some patients with breast pain think they have breast cancer because they cannot find the cause of the pain. In fact, there are many reasons for breast pain. Temporary breast pain caused by physiological changes in women at different stages is medically called "physiological breast pain". Several common types are introduced below: 1. Breast pain during adolescence: The earliest breast pain in girls usually occurs between the ages of 9 and 13. At this time, girls' breasts begin to develop, first the nipples bulge, and there is a slight feeling of pain. After menarche, it will disappear on its own as the breasts mature during puberty. 2. Premenstrual breast pain: Many women experience fullness, hardness, and tenderness in the breasts during menstruation. In severe cases, the breasts may become swollen and painful even with a slight vibration or collision, and the original granules or nodules may become more obvious. This is caused by increased estrogen levels in the body before menstruation, breast hyperplasia, and edema of the breast interstitial tissue. After the menstrual period, the above changes disappear.

2. If you have not had sex but have taken emergency contraceptive pills, then consider that the symptoms you describe may be caused by the emergency contraceptive pills. The main ingredient of general emergency contraceptive pills is a large dose of hormones, which can act on the human endocrine system, causing changes in the corresponding target organs, causing the nipples to become larger and more sensitive, and acne to appear on the face.

Suggestions: Generally speaking, these symptoms can gradually return to normal as the body's drugs are metabolized and hormone levels decrease, but it also depends on different people's ability to metabolize emergency contraceptives, and the length of time may also vary. I hope this helps you, and I wish you good health~

Only by figuring out why nipples become enlarged and painful can we choose the most effective treatment method. Many female friends are particularly worried about this situation and don’t know what to do. The first thing we should do is not to have too much psychological pressure, and actively seek effective methods for treatment to achieve the effect of healing as soon as possible.
