Hi everyone, In the last while I’ve been experiencing pain in my boobs. Not all the time, but some mornings when I sit up they are sore or when I try to go for a run (even in a good sports bra) they are sore. I’m wondering in Ireland, is it just a GP’s appointment to get checked or does it have to be a breast clinic? Happy to hear anyone’s experiences!

Btw I have the implant.

Sore breasts are a normal side effect of all hormonal birth control. It also happens during your natural menstrual cycle even if you're not on bc

@aurielle thanks for the reply! I know it’s a side effect but I was wondering is it normal to this extent? Like being too sore to go for a run or just standing up out of bed

Hmm that does seem a bit strange. Would be worth talking to your doctor.

@Door_ yes I've personally experience that level of soreness but only for short periods of time. It eventually goes away.

In Ireland to. I get tender breast like a like shape dull pain in one or the other sometimes. I myself put it down to a side effect I take the pill full time no break for the last 5 months it’s like when i should be ovulating time of the month & maybe before my break week would be due .

Went to the doctor and I have no cyclic breast pain that I have to take stuff for, just putting it here incase anyone else is in the same boat!
