My nipples have grown and i dont know why...
19f
Okay so the past couple of days i have noticed my nipples have gotten bigger my boyfriend has noticed too. We are sexually active and I am not on birth control yet, I am waiting for my period to start before i begin them. The thing about my period is already 3 days late but any form of stress always makes me late and it has been a very stressful month haha. I have taken a HPT and it was negative. So i dont think it is caused from pregnancy. What are some other reasons for nipples to grow???

Maybe give some free advice about: Pregnancy?
It very well could be a symptom of pregnancy.
Negative pregnancy tests can lie. Positives don't though. Remember that.
My friend in high school was 17 and pregnant. Throughout her ENTIRE pregnancy all home pregnancy tests showed negative, for whatever reason. We're talking, her sporting a giant 8-month pregnancy belly holding a "-" pregnancy test. It was pretty funny.
If in doubt, see a doctor. Pregnancy tests from the doctor don't typically show false-negatives if they do the bloodwork correctly.
However, when I was young, around 11, I noticed one morning that my nipples had changed drastically. They had previously been fairly "normal" sized and were suddenly larger.
I had not had sex. I had not engaged in ANY sexual activity. I was certainly not pregnant.
What I figure? Hormonal changes.
At 19, you probably wouldn't be experiencing these changes; however, they do say the female body is still maturing into the early 20s. At 19, it's possible that your hormones are fluctuating and your breast tissue, including your nipples and areolas, have grown because of this.
On a side note, I hate how people just throw around "abortion" like it's no big deal. Like, God forbid anyone would ever even CONSIDER adoption if they didn't want a child, right? Just a minor rant. ;)

Pregnancy tests aren't always 100% accurate and many require 2 weeks to kick in. Nipples growing are a classic first stage sign of pregnancy. See your GYN ASAP and re-test in about 2 weeks.
It's probably too late for Plan B, so if you've got a pregnancy going on, you'll probably be facing an abortion if you decide you don't want a child at this stage in your life.
Good luck!
