nipple pain at ovulation--what hormone is responsible? A woman nursing a toddler consulted me: She usually has significant nipple tenderness for about 48 hours beginning at ovulation. That's fine with her, but she wants to know the hormone responsible for the pain. She wants to know because she has noticed that in months when she HAS the nipple pain, she has very mild PMS. But in months when she does NOT HAVE the nipple pain, she has extreme PMS symptoms. Maybe the nipple-pain hormone info might give a clue to understanding (and maybe controlling) the variation in PMS. Any ideas? thanks, p. *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
