What Causes Tender Nipples Post Hetroscopic Surgery And D&C To Remove Polyps?

Question: I had a hetroscopic surgery on December 23rd and a D&C to remove polyps. today my nipples are real tender not the areola just the nipples. what could be causing this? Is this normal? I am no longer bleeding and only mild cramps every now and then
Brief Answer:
Hello, I would be happy to help...
Detailed Answer:
You had a "hysteroscopic" surgery to remove uterine polyps. This has no effect on your hormones or your cycle. The tenderness of the nipple / areola is likely co-incidental to the surgery. This should be addressed as a separate issue:
1. Pregnancy test if this is a risk
2. A breast exam by your primary doctor
I hope that this helps and good luck! Please ask if you have additional questions.
