To ask about tingling nipples?

I am 46 and definitely in peri.

For the past couple of days, I have had the oddest sensation in both nipples. It is a tingling just like when your milk comes in when you are breastfeeding.

Definitely not pregnant as I got my period a couple of days ago.

Anybody else have this?
I have health anxiety so I find things like this tricky, but I know it can't be cancer as it's both sides and came on suddenly.
I read evening primrose oil can help and may give that a go if it carries on, unless anyone has a better suggestion??

Thank you!

Have you taken a pregnancy test? The only thing that’s ever given me tingly boobs is pregnancy!

Is it a normal period? In the past I've mistaken implantation bleeding with a period.

Yes, normal period. At least 90ml (cup user).

Same here. Freaked me out the first time as it felt so much like being pregnant.

Pregnancy sprang to mind for me too...
