Question for ladies done with menopause...breast pain one side
Posted , 5 users are following.
I had last period 6 years ago. Been on HRT patches since then but with absolutely no issues.
Suddenly, 4 weeks ago, I have developed 24hr pain in my right breast. It is a 5/10 on pain and a 20/10 on worry!
Saw gynae yesterday who couldn't feel any lumps (neither can I) and she was quite unconcerned. However my annual screening appt is for Thursday anyway so of course she said go for that.
My worry is that I don't see how my boob could suddenly start to hurt badly, always in approx same part of boob, for weeks now after it had basically been quiet for years and years?
I'd love to hear from others who have had sudden breast pain (one side) from nowhere in my position.
THANK YOU

I am 60 and have had weird breast pain at times over the last couple years.. Hormones or less estrogen, can cause so many weird symptoms that can go on for days or weeks or even a couple months only to stop suddenly and come back here and there or never. All of this use to terrify me, but learned to just relax and get my routine mammograms. Hoping it turns out to be just hormonal for you too.

I have had the intermittent right breast pain for years since meno started. All my tests and mammograms are fine, but it still scares me too!
