My breasts get very sore about a week before my period. The nipples in particular, but I notice the most when I am going up and down stairs or taking my bra off. I often have to hold myself tightly as I take the stairs and wince as I free the girls from bra jail.

Are there any supplements I can take to alleviate this sensitivity?

Also, if I were to get pregnant would I expect my breasts to get sore like normal or would a lack of soreness potentially be an indication of pregnancy? I always attributed it to PMS, but if I’m pregnant can I have PMS related symptoms?

Thanks!
