The nipple is hard and a little painful to touch

Everyone has nipples, not just girls, boys too. Girls will experience nipple pain during puberty, and they will feel hard to the touch. In fact, girls have many diseases, so they should pay special attention to their bodies. In addition to puberty, there are other reasons for hard nipples. So why are nipples hard and painful to touch?

If you have such symptoms one or two days before your period, it is because of the change in hormone levels when women are about to have their period. The nipples and milk ducts become more sensitive. At this time, if you touch them when wearing underwear or taking a bath, it will be painful. If this happens at other times, then the possibility of mastitis is relatively high. It is best to go to the hospital for a breast color ultrasound examination and then receive symptomatic treatment.

If you have nipple pain before your period, it may be due to changes in hormone levels before your period. Generally, it will gradually return to normal after your period, so don't worry too much.

Hard nipples before menstruation indicate premenstrual syndrome, which usually occurs 1 to 2 weeks before menstruation and disappears after menstruation. It is recommended that you observe and see whether it disappears after menstruation. If it disappears, you don’t need to worry too much.

I think it is related to hormone levels. When menstruation is about to come, sometimes there will be symptoms of breast tenderness. You should not rub or squeeze the breasts. I think there should not be any big problem.

Nipple pain, the most painful occurs before and after ovulation, it hurts when you touch it with your hand. It is slightly relieved during the luteal phase until menstruation. It is the most painful before and after ovulation. I don’t know if it is the effect of estrogen. Estrogen levels are highest before and on ovulation. When the corpus luteum is formed, due to the effect of progesterone, estrogen is not as high as before ovulation, so the nipple pain is slightly relieved, but it persists until menstruation. Opinions and suggestions are related to endocrine disorders and mental factors. Reduced secretion of progesterone and relatively increased estrogen are important causes of this disease.

The prominent symptoms are breast pain and breast lumps. Since the mechanism and cause of this disease are not yet fully understood, the current treatment is basically symptomatic.

Some patients can often relieve themselves after a few months to 1-2 years after the onset of the disease, and most do not need treatment. For patients with more obvious symptoms and a wider range of lesions, they can use a bra to lift their breasts; oral Chinese medicine Xiaojindan or Xiaoyaosan, or 5% potassium iodide can relieve symptoms. In recent years, there are many similar drug products, such as Rukuaixiao, Rupixiao, Tiandongsu Tablets, Pingxiao Tablets, Nangpiling, Tamoxifen, etc., with different treatment effects. In addition, there is hormone therapy. Some people use androgens to treat this disease to inhibit the effect of estrogen, soften nodules, and relieve symptoms
