Which hormones are doing what??

[Coopersmommy2]

This month of TTC has been very different for us. First of all I ovulated 2 days later than usual. Usually after ovulation within a day or 2 I get extremely sore breats...so swollen and painful. This month I don't have that at all....not pain or swelling at all. I do remember from my first pregnancy that I only had a tiny discomfort in my breasts for like a week or 2 but that was it. I am NOT asking if this is a pregnancy sign as I have learned that all my PMS signs are just like pregnancy symptoms but what I am asking is what hormone causes sore breats and why are mine not this month? And I guess could this be a sign?

Doesn't anybody know the answer to my question?

Nope, sorry!  But I guess if you usually have sore breasts and you don't this month, it *could* be a symptom.  Seems kinda unlikely, though, tbh.

Well I know women who take progesterone have increased breast tenderness and you have a surge of progesterone as a result of ovulation so I would assume it is that hormone.

That's what I thought and that's why I don't understand why I have no breast tenderness or swelling. I did ovulate because I have been testing. So I guess I am just a little confused as to why things are different this month. I guess my body is just all mixed up...
