    Anti Prolactin for Puffy Nipples?

    Ever since I hit puberty my nipples got puffy. When I get cold and they shrink up they look fine. Also when I hit puberty in the beginning stages there would be a little drop of some dark milky substance when squeezed but this has not happened now for quite a few years. Would some sort of anti prolactin or any sort of drug fix the problem of puffiness and size? Also I am natural as of right now so does this mean I should be extra careful when running compounds like deca or tren ? Btw...nipples arent big just puffy

    Welcome to the community,

    You ever have blood work indicating prolactin excess? Or are you just guessing? Many factors can cause puffy nipples, not just prolactin. But yes, you should always monitor prolactin when cycling progestins.

    Thank you. I am getting my first blood test done tomorrow for before cycle but as of right now I am just guessing. Lets say my prolactin is high. Would this fix the puffiness?

    You could give raloxifene a go 60mgs a day for a couple months to see of that works. Other than than surgery is the best option or even just lipo if it is just fat causing it. A train surgeon will determine this.
    And yes your probably going to have issues running AAS

    No not really. Could be anything. Hormonal imbalance is one of several possible causes.

    Have you had blood work done to assess current hormone levels?

    Some people forget that gynecomastia can be a genetic predisposition resulting from chromosomal abnormalities, such as mutations of the p450 aromatase gene resulting in lower levels of testosterone , high-normal levels of estradiol and estrone resulting in incomplete virilization. This condition is sometimes referred to as aromatase excess syndrome.

    Translation: Get blood work. Your hormones might be out of whack. Check test and estrogen to start.

    I have not but I am sure its not gyno because when I get cold my nipples shrink up and they look perfectly fine...no bumps or anything at all. just when I stop being cold they get puffy and it just doesnt look good

    Uh, ya.....any stimulus that causes the nipple to become erect causes the nerves in the smooth muscle of the chest to contract and tighten, reducing any swelling. That's not a criteria to assess excessive aromatase or hormonal conditions.

    Translation (for Austinite): pinching, rubbing, or placing something cold on or near the nipple makes them hard.

    NEO5.....get blood work as suggested. Have a full hormone panel with male sensitive E2 assay performed.

    Post results back here if you want some input.

    Until then, it would be ideal to hold off on self-medicating until you identify the cause(s).
