What Causes Sharp Pain Around The Nipples?

I am a 49 year old African American female. I was completely menopausal at 44. I have no sensitivity in my breast. I lost sensitivity a year ago. I also experience sharp pain around the nipple area. What could have caused this? How can I get it back? It is killing my libido!

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
From history it seems that due to low estrogen level at this stage of menopause you get this type of problem.
As pain is there in nipple area go for Mammogram to rule out any pathology in the breast.
Otherwise you might require some hormonal therapy to get your sex life back.
Consult Gynae and get examined.
Ok and take care.
