Breasts Still Hurting, Neg HPT

I posted some days ago about my breasts hurting, and wondering if it was the Nortrel that I've been on for two months, or if I was pregnant. On Sunday morning I took an HPT and it was negative. I haven't yet missed a period, because I skip my periods and only get them 4 times a year. I might note that I also took up jogging within the past month and a half..I don't wear a proper bra, so I'm wondering if maybe my breasts are infected because of that.

Ugh well of course now it's been some days and my breasts are exactly the same. I called my gyno today and spoke with a nurse, whose first question out of her mouth was "are you pregnant?!?!" I mean again, I don't think so..but I SUPPOSE I could have taken the HPT too early. Anyway, so now I'm waiting for them to call me back, which could take forever :(

My nipples/areloae feel like they're burning, and the actual nipples themselves the skin looks lighter (almost white) and bumpy..kind of like the head of your basic planter wart. Has ANYONE else experienced this? Without being pregnant? I want to emphasize again that we use condoms EVERY time, and I am on BC, and I'm pretty sure we've never had any problems with our contraception.

I need some support here, I'm having serious anxiety :(

Yeah, the only side effects listed are the usual breast tenderness, etc. Nothing too specific, and I've searched the net for side effects related for Nortrel and not found much. Thanks again.

My doctor appt is on Thursday. They're treating me like I'm pregnant already..kind of annoying.

It could be the stress on them from jogging. What you've been doing is something they're not really used to and if you're on the pill and using condoms then it's highly unlikely that you're preg. like you said. Check the side effects on the nortrel if you have them handy or they should be on the net. Hope you feel better soon!
