Itchy Breasts

[Rudah]

I am also a 27 year old female and my breast continuously itch, no matter what bra I wear.  I'm not pregnant and I am somewhat healthy.  I'm getting concerned because this has gone on for nearly a month now and I really don't know what the problem is.  I literally cannot go 5 minutes without scratching!  Is this related to breast cancer in anyway?  If not, what may be causing this?

I had the same problem and it went on for years, I would wake up with claw marks all over my boobs from scratching them so aggressively in my sleep. I finally came to the conclusion it is toxins in the breast. I bought some nipple suckers and brown discharge came out, I now try to massage and express them at least once a month and the thing that truly was a game changer.. Epson Salt baths..it pulls the toxins out.Make sure you have the hottest water you can stand and add a few cups of Epson salts and fully submerge your breasts for at least a good 20 minutes. I hope this works for you as well as it did for me. My breasts rarely itch at all anymore and if they do I know it's time to detoxify.Also if the itch is too much to handle, apply some cooling hemorrhoid cream, it stops the itch in an instant. Good luck to you.

I don't know what causes it either, but I've experienced it too.  I'll be interested in the answers you get.

I don't know what the cause is, but for the past few months I have been experiencing the same thing!  At first I thought that it may have been fabric softener or dry skin or something but then I began to wonder if there was a bigger problem going on.  I scratch across my breasts (nipples too) that I leave red scratch lines.  I scratch so hard that I don't care if my skin bleeds!  Hopefully you get an answer soon.  I'll check back later.
