Fact or fiction: Your nipples itch when your boobs grow


 

Check these out, too...

  • Fact or fiction: Wearing a bra stops your breasts from growing
  • Boob hair: Normal or not?
  • Could I have Huge Boob Syndrome?
  • Do guys only care about chest size?
  • Do these blue veins on my boobs mean I'm sick or something?
I’ve heard that when your boobs are growing, your nipples itch. Is that true?


This one falls somewhere between fact and fiction. When your breast tissue is growing, you might feel a little sore or tender to the touch. They can also feel itchy because your skin is stretching to accommodate the larger size of the underlying tissue. So yes, your nipples might be itchy while your boobs are growing.


But…your nipples could be itchy for other reasons, too. Things like scratchy fabric, an allergy to your laundry detergent or super dry skin. Take a peek at your boobs. If your nipples look red and irritated, try wearing softer clothes and rubbing some moisturizer into the dry skin after you shower.

MOD MOD MOD!!!!!
ok so in the beginning of the year i sat with the popular people but then i ended up sitting with the less populer people cause im really quiet and it didnt feel like they liked me like the others so i wanna try to sit with the popular people again next year but i dont want to hurt anybodys feelings!!! i dont know what to do please helppp!!!




Hey girlie,

It's totally fine to wanna "float" between friends groups and experiment to see which you feel more comfy with! Try mixing it up and sitting with one group for a couple days, then the other group for a few days. And when you're there... TALK! Doing something new is always a little nerve-wracking, so take a deep breath, swallow that anxiety, and be more out-going than you're used to! It's the only way to let them get to know you - and for you to get to know them Smile

Tender, like around the perimeter of my boob. And yes, I have had my period for..2 years? Oh and wondering, do you know the game "Boob tag?" Ya, some girls at my school play that, and some play hard! Even tho I am out of school, could that really damage tissue or anything in your breasts? And sometimes my nipples feel really sore and if they get rubbed againist, it like a sore feeling. And I check to make sure they are ok n in the middle of my nipple it looks like this flake thingy is coming off (Sorry I dont mean to sound gross, but there is no other way to describe this!)But I just gently pad it back in, bc pulling it hurts!!




Hey girlie,

Yep, I've heard of that game...that's so annoying! Our bodies are pretty resiliant though, which means they can handle a lot of everyday "abuse." Still, that game can really hurt sometimes - and I wouldn't really want random girls touching my boobs, even if it's quickly haha. So next time the game is going around, defend yourself! Smile No worries on your nipple prob - they can get dry just like skin, and that's what this sounds like. Try using a gentle body lotion after showering and get it everywhere. It's natural for boobs to feel sore or raw at times (especially before your period), but you can definitely help out your bod by moisturizing Smile

Ok this sound embarrasing lol, but for the past couple of months, my boobs have been hurting, I thought it might have been bc my bra was too small, so I stop wearing it, but they still kinda hurt! I dont think it is because of my laundry detergent either!




Hurt as in tender? If so, it may be a variety of things, such as your period.

This might sound weird but one of my boobs is a little bigger than the other. Is that normal? Will they even out as I grow?




It's perfectly normal and quite common.
