Bleeding nipples!!!

Options
Now that I have your attention.... lol

I'm looking for shirts to wear while running long distances that wont rub my nipples raw. Any suggestions???? I was thinking Under Armor but wasn't sure if there was something better out there.

Thanks for the help!

    Bleeding? Boy, you've got a high pain tollerance. :laugh:

    I've had the sore nips before from running and a real runner told me they sometimes tape them. :noway: Yeah, thats what he said. Tape.

    I'm petrified of nipple chafing. Once it starts it is a vicious circle. If you have sensitive nipples, they chafe, so they become more sensitive, so they chafe more. So... I take precautions.

    Ok but for serious...I have no good answers, sports bras have always done the trick- sorry. (maybe they make a sports bro?)

    I have to imagine bleeding nipples is as uncomfortable as the wire from ones bra stabbing their breast all day. Having experienced the latter, I feel for you. Maybe try some waterproof Band Aids?

    Ive had this problem too while using the elliptical. I have solved my problem by wearing a t shirt and then a sweatshirt. I think the extra weight keeps the motion down. I know how painful and stressful it can be. Good luck!

    Get some pasties!! :laugh: No....for real, Summer's Eve or Massengil makes this product called "chafing gel" and it is a gel-like powder that dries clear. It forms a protective barrier to friction and moisture.It comes in a purple tube and is found by the tampons:blushing: ..LOL!! Its made for areas like under the breasts and for when thighs rub together:noway: ....ewww...LOL! Anyhow...I bet that would protect your nipples from being rubbed raw! I hope you don't mind shopping in the feminine isle!!
