Have your boobs ever been sore 17 days before your expected period?

[Anonymous]

Sore boobs are usually my first PMS symptom, it starts 5-10 days before my expected period. This month it started so early, I’m worried about pregnancy.

Thank you. Hoping it is just ovulation! I would take a pregnancy test, but it’s probably too soon to detect … my wedding is in 9 months so this would just be bad timing if it’s pregnancy.

That soreness would more likely be due to ovulation than anything else. Ovulation happens 12-16 days before your period (so you orobably haven’t even ovulated yet) and it takes AT LEAST 5 days after ovulation before an embryo can implant in your uterus and not before it does could you start feeling pregnancy symptoms. At that point you’d be 7-11 days before your period, at the very minimum (often embryos don’t implant until 6-7 days after ovulation). And most women don’t feel symptoms that early either (and by the way lots of pregnant women don’t even get sore breasts at all or don’t get it until later on in the pregnancy). So no, there is basically no way that breast soreness 17 days before your period is due to pregnancy. Only exception would be if you’re just completely wrong about your cycle this month.

Thank you, hoping that is what it is!

Sometimes boobs just get sore, because fuck you, and no other reason. At least that's how they are with me. Get a pregnancy test if it's stressing you out, that way you can know for sure.

This is true! But I think it’s too early for a pregnancy test

Mine have not. I’m not sure if sore boobs are a symptom of pregnancy that early but you should get a test if you’re worried.

Ovulation makes sense
