Hello! I've been experiencing highly sensitive nipples for the past week. Just to rub or scratch them they hurt. The rest of my breasts are a little sore. I didn't get my monthly period this month (April). Not uncommon though for me. My cycles aren't always regular. But lately they have been coming on time each month. I've been a little stressed lately so that may have been the reason why I missed it this month (has happened before with no pregnancy). But usually if I miss my period I don't have the sore breasts or the PMS symptoms. I've had a little cramping yesterday that felt like I was going to start my period but it still hasn't come yet. Now I've been pregnant before and I know the symptoms. Just not experiencing all of them. I don't know if there may be something else wrong though. Any ideas?! Also my husband deployed to Afphganistan in February so I haven't had sex in over two months. So I know I'd have more pregnancy symptoms by now if I was. But they say each pregnancy is different.

Hi Armywife,
Thank you for your question. Since you are late for your period, I would suggest trying a pregnancy test just to be sure. If you are not pregnant, this could certainly be a sign of pre-menstrual symptoms as well. Preganancy and pre-menstrual symptoms often mimic each other. Do yourself a favor and try the pregnancy test to rule out the possibility. Stress could certainly be a contributing factor as well. Every women deals with stress differently therefore, a positive diagnosis should be consulted with your treating physician.
Good luck,
Missie
