Hi,
During my last two cycles, I have had the most awfully tender breasts. I’ve always had a bit of tenderness but this is like nothing I’ve experienced before, even when I was pregnant. I’m forever wincing if the kids accidentally catch me and even moving my arms hurts.
Has anyone had this suddenly occur? I’m pretty sure it’s related to my cycle as it has cleared for a week or two after my period.
I’m also experiencing much worse cramps and heavier periods. My cycle is also shorter - 28 days exactly, which I know isn’t abnormally short, but for me is different.
I’m just 40. I’m not on any hormonal contraception anymore, have been off about a year and half.
Anyone have any experience of this or any way to relieve the tender breasts? It’s making me so miserable; I can’t even comfortably hug my kids!
Thanks.
