Breast tenderness and sore nipples, is it pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I'm still in school, 21 years old. I recently just found out I'm pregnant. I'm a bit young, and I don't know what to do. Please ask: Is breast tenderness and aching nipples a sign of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

You are experiencing breast tenderness along with nipple pain. This could possibly be due to pregnancy. You can buy a pregnancy test kit to check. However, if the test result does not indicate pregnancy, it is recommended to visit a hospital for further examination. It may be caused by mastitis or other breast conditions. In addition to treatment, pay attention to maintaining sleep. Sufficient sleep will help you recover quickly from the illness.
