The thread about having sore breasts during early pregnancy made me wonder how many people get them during PMS.

My boobs get horribly sore about 7 to 10 days out from my period, every single month. I'm talking they hurt to touch, lay on, it hurts to wear a bra, it hurts to walk around with them unsupported, they swell, etc.

I always thought this was the norm, but apparently some people don't get sore boobs! I'm jealous of those people! Sore boobs are miserable.

FWIW, I'm not on any hormonal BC, so I don't know if that affects things?

What about you? Do your boobs get sore during PMS? Never, sometimes, always? Are you on BC? Have you noticed a difference between PMS symptoms when on BC vs when off of it?
