Hi - This could be a hormonal issue, or an allergic reaction. Generally, it's good to track issues like itchiness, and see how long they last. if it lasts longer than a few weeks; or if it gets much worse; or if your breast starts to seem infected (red, hot, painful, swollen), then you should see a doctor, OK? Good luck - PJH

Thank you for your input
