What Causes Breast And Nipples Tenderness, Soreness After Unprotected Intercourse?
I had unprotected sex about 2-3 weeks ago. I woke up today with very very sore, tender breasts and nipples. Nothing in my diet or environment has changed, and I have not started any new medications. Is it too soon for this to be a sign of pregnancy? I am not due to have my period for another few weeks.

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understand your concerns.
Tender breasts are most often an indication of pregnancy, but can also be a sign that you are in ovulation. Further complicating the matter, tender breasts can also be a symptom of premenstrual syndrome. You need to wait till your period date to know about pregnancy by a urine pregnancy test.
In your case ovulation seems to be the cause for your symptoms.
Hope this answers your query.
Regards,
Dr.Alekhya.
