It could also just be changes in the skin in that area, sometimes due to a skin disease like a fungal infection, or related to irritation caused by clothing. Excessive perspiration may be another cause. If it is persisting, it would be a good idea to speak to your doctor about it. Sometimes its as simple as dry skin. Hi Anya

I don't have nipple discharge or any other symptom. But itchiness is so bothersome. My very recent mammogram results (2 weeks ago) are normal. Can't help but worry about breast cancer. Could this be also caused by hormonal changes (because I could already be pre-menopausal)? I'm 44 yrs old. My breasts were itchy on and off for a week now.
