Breast pain after period

Hi all,

I occasionally get achey boobs between ovulation and period, but this cycle they have become increasing sore around the sides since my period ended. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this? My googling is turning up nothing - everything online just says boobs shouldn't be sore at that point of the cycle! As background info - I'm not pregnant, but have been trying for 2 years. Took an 8 day course of progesterone supplement last cycle from CD16-24. Now on CD8 after normal period. Confused!

I had this a while back - tender boobs before period, then during, then it carried on until my next period. Every day for nearly 2 months! Predictably, by the time I'd got a docs appointment it had gone. Doc just said to take evening primrose oil. Hasn't happened again. I presume its just hormone related.

Thanks! Progesterone supplements must have mucked my hormones up - wonderful ... It's a weird kind of pain. Almost like I've been lifting weights and got muscle strain under my armpits and side boobs.

I'll get some EPO - worth a shot (but think I can only take that up to ovulation when TTC).
