What cause breasts to get swollen, sore, enlarged, and growing...I thought it was estrogen-I am asking because


I have a friend who is in her mid-fifties, she isn't pregnant and she doesn't get her period anymore, so I do not understand what is causing this because I thought estrogen decreases with age and lack of a period. Why are her breasts growing uncomfortably large? Please help. Thank You

Menopausal symptoms could be swollen breasts..follow up with family Doctor.
Thank you for chosing mine as best answer...best of luck!

being pregnant
Yikes...I think she needs a pro opinion.

That's a bit scary, good luck*
i'm not sure what could cause this in a woman her age but it doesn't sound good you should tell her to see a specialist...has she checked for lumps??
It could be bad. I am not sure. She should see her doctor.
