(Sorry I know we are all adults, but didn't want to put BOOBS in the subject line).
So DH and I have been trying for the past 3 months, and I have come to notice that as soon as I O my boobs hurt, and by hurt I mean "if you touch them you die" hurt. Typically it continues until AF (so needless to say DH is not too happy with this recent development). Anyone else having this issue since going off BC? I have been experiencing all the hormonal side effects of going off BC (acne, hair falling out, weight gain) so figured I could just add this to the list :-(.
Re: Do your top side assets hurt too??
On a TTC forum, there have been way worse things than boobs in post subject lines.
I'm sorry though, I've never had an issue with my "top side assets" hurting so badly that I want to kill MH for touching them.

Not my top side, but I have noticed, since going off BCP (which I was on for over 10 years, so this is all NEW to me this last year) that my ovulation pain is so horrible (in my hips and pelvis area), that it makes sex extremely painful. So, way to go evolution for that issue. If it weren't for charting and knowing its the FW, I would skip sex all together on those days.
I have the same issue, started when I went off BCP last October and it hasn't stopped. Some months it's less painful, but it's usually pretty painful. I can't lie on my stomach; it hurts to go up and down steps; and just a brush against them is enough to make me want to cry. And I actually have rather small breasts. It's pretty ridiculous. I've found that wearing a really tight sports bra helps (though not in the DH department). It is not quite extreme as it was right off BCP (or else I'm just used to it), but it still sucks, so I feel your pain (quite literally). The only thing I've found good about it is that I know without a question that I've O'd, and I know that AF is on its way when the pain lets up.
This. MH actually asked me if I was turned on all the time now that I wasn't on BCP, referring to the "boner nips."

I only O when I use clomid (so far) so I believe it could be making the issue worse. Clomid seems to make most things hurt or twinge more acutely for me.

I have never been on BC... and mine hurt from O till AF... ALL OVER... the pain last month was so intense and more on the sides and under my arms... so painful and intense I had to take my bra off in the middle of the work day. Most nights can't sleep on my stomach.
