Thread: Breast growth? Pregnancy? PMS?

About a week ago, my breasts started feeling sore and firmer. Especially when I take off my bra. And they're very itchy! Today I got up and saw this reddish line on the left breast. I thought it was a scratch. Looking closely, I realized it looked more like a tiny stretch mark. Now it's more defined and I'm 90% sure it's a stretch mark.

My breasts finished growing... phew, like almost a decade ago! I'm 20, and I was kind of an early bloomer, I didn't develop big breasts, just like barely a B cup, but ever since I can remember I've been the same size! Probably since I was what, like 11? I got my period at 11, and I started growing breasts even before that! They even shunk a bit when I lost weight a while ago, but I stayed the same size.

Now, I've been on the pill for like 2 years. It has worked like a charm since I started. I had regular periods before, and now I can even predict at what time of day i'll get my period. I've never suffered from PMS and I have never experienced very painful cramps. Basically, I've been blessed.

So, my period is due on Sunday. I've never experienced these symptoms before (the breasts thing). Maybe this is my first time PMS? I have no other symptoms though... so I'm afraid it could be pregnancy! But I'll have to wait until Sunday to find out... I have missed no pills, so it's unlikely, I guess?

Could it be breast growth? But how? I don't think I would grow now, considering how neither my sister or mum grew after they hit puberty, although they're both way bigger than me (albeit I'm thinner, and have a smaller frame).

This is confusing, and now I have one ugly, red stretch mark looking thing on my left breast...

I experienced the same thing from about age 19 til about a year ago (I'm 24 now). Occasionally I still get it, but it is much less. I have noticed that since that time my breasts have enlarged about 1/2 a cup size. I don't know if the itching signifies growth, but I think it is normal to still have some breast growth in early twenties.
