I'm perimenopausal and notice that my breasts are bigger and more veiny. Anyone else notice the same thing.

    Mine def grew with my gut, as part of peri weight gain. I think that's normal. A lot of woman have mentioned that. I did finally manage to lose some weight tho after a stressful car accident by not eating for 2 weeks. But I wouldn't recommend that. I also think in peri you have a lot of hormone fluctuations so they might shrink back down again. Mine did.

      Thank you! I'm obsessing over the veins but I think bigger boobs goes together with more veins. I hate this. Always something.

      Hi Natalie,

      I'm 55 years post menopausal & I too started getting veins in my breasts when I was peri.

      A lot of physical & emotional changes. Hang in there!
