Does Tender And Itchy Breasts With Discharge Indicate Pregnancy?

Hi, I am day 9 into my cycle. I have been trying to conceive for 7 months. Today my breasts have been tender and itchy. When I touch my nipples, discharge secretes. This was the same for both. I have never been pregnant and a home pregnancy test is negative. Is the nipple discharge a possible sign of ovulation or something else?

Hi! nipple discharge with a negative pregnancy test is not that good an information as possibility of hyper-prolactinemia and infertility is associated with it!

A microscopic examination of the secretion is necessary to rule out any infection or cysts!

Therefore ask your gynecologist for a clinical examination and necessary steps regarding conceiving a child at this stage; some hormonal assessment is must!
