Is it normal to have sore nipples with Skyla IUD?
Some women experience sore breasts and nipples with the Skyla IUD. There's a lack of research to confirm how common this tenderness or pain is, but it is a recognised side effect of the hormone progestogen released by the coil - and is a side effect that comes up in our user reviews at The Lowdown. If this doesn't settle in a few months, or you notice any new symptoms such as a breast lump or nipple discharge, please make sure you see your doctor.
