my last period was about 6 months ago,  I'm 55.  Been having a relatively good go of it.  I take a low dose birth control pill for hot flashes etc.  Thing is my breaths are sore.  Nothing terrible but aching sometimes!!

    It's ironic that you posted this because I am 54 and haven't had a period in 4 months and suddenly my breasts have been very sore. I think I spotted a tiny bit the last 2 days but my breasts feel like I'm getting my period. They haven't hurt since June. They just started hurting a couple days ago when I noticed some spotting. I just chalk it up to another hormone fluctuation and still heading towards menopause. Doesn't concern me though

      I guess that's the beauty of it.  Just chalk it up to hormones!!

    Wow....I was just saying to my husband today how my breasts feel like they did before my period would start... tender, especially the nipple area. I've also noticed over the past few weeks that they feel fuller, like they used to be!

    I am also 55 and a year ago had a hysterectomy with ovaries left in so I don't really know where I would be in my cycle but have felt over the past few months like my estrogen levels are diminishing. My last period was two weeks before hysterectomy...exactly a year ago this week.
