Hi, I started taking zoloft 5 days ago for anxiety, my mind has started to feel clearer but almost immediately my breasts swelled up and my nipples were hard and painful. I stopped taking it today but my boobs are worse than ever. Has this happened to anyone else? How long did it take to stop?
Hi Claire,
I have been on zoloft for 18 months and this has never happened to me, so you have to ask yourself have you ever had sore boobs before (unless its with pregnancy) if not I think you should go to the drs office and get yourself checked, sounds to me like mastitis, hope this helps :-)
I'm neither pregnant nor breastfeeding, mastitis is from breastfeeding isn't it?
no any woman can get it, it's an infection in the breast tissues and very painful, in non lactating women it's called periductal mastitis., again I hope you are ok, but if it was me I would defo get it checked.
Wow I had no idea that was possible. Thanks and I will.
your more than welcome, let me know what your DR says.
