@kaitlynngist I've never had breast problems these extensive and don't know if they relate to Xulane. I have had a cyst behind my nipple that went away after a few months but I'venever had discharge. Has anyone done an ultrasound of your breast? These patches aren't for everyone. A friend's daughter was given some type of birth control patch to wear at 18. She ended up at the ER with pain and sweating. She was told to rip it off and let her body adjust. Is there a breast specialist that you could meet with? I doubt you have adenomyosis or fibroids at your age. Endometriosis can occur very young but with breast pain I didn't have that until my 40s.

@blueskies1530 I had breast issues prior to beginning Xulane. I had a spot biopsied in December 2024 and pathology came back as a fibroadenoma. They just repeated the ultrasound in December and hasn't grown. I also do have discharge from that breast and then tenderness and pain based on when I'm at in my cycle. Since starting Xulane it has become more consistent pain, although I was originally told it should go away within a couple months of starting Xulane. That's why he started me on it. I talked to his nurse and is just having me come back in next week because she doesn't know and wants me to talk directly to him.
