I am 33 weeks pregnant and have noticed some very small scaly bumps just outside of my areola. They are flesh colored with a tinge of yellow and bleed when I scratch them. I have one or two ON my areola but I am more concerned about the few on the skin around my areola. I am HSV-1 positive and to my recollection have never had a cold sore on my breast but I am concerned of it when it comes time to breastfeed my baby. When did the bumps start?

I recently switched the time I take my birth control pill from night to morning. I am also on an antidepressant and am 23 years old. What could be causing this bleeding and what can I do about it?

My menstrual cycle, which was normally 28-30 days, has changed to 35 and 39 days this year. Could this affect my chances of getting pregnant?
