I've had itchy nipples on occasion. Not sure of the cause, but it can drive me insane. It disappears as quickly as it appears.

I've had this a LOT the last few months! Used to be a PMS-thing, but no it's more of an all-the-time-thing... :( Evening primrose oil seems to help, and so does a really thick diaper rash cream after shower/bath. For me, at least. It seems my breasts get itchy when they rub against clothes, especially.

Don't want to worry any of you but it's worth mentioning that itching can be a sign of breast disease. If it continues and seems not related to your actual scar, please go and talk to your GP to make sure all is well.
