What’s with this sore breasts & menopause? Why hasn’t anyone mentioned this before? Women & their breasts- they might give pleasure to men but they are often a “pain” to us!
Who would have thought they would still be causing discomfort long after the periods have stopped?
Breast pain & sore nipples have been part of my life, and I have been quite attached to them in some circumstances. As a young girl they would signal a period about to come, so there were never any surprises on that front. As a newly married woman hoping to get pregnant their presence was a hopeful sign of success. And as a young Mum breastfeeding my new baby breast discomfort was par for the course.
Who would have thought though that they would still be causing me angst long after my periods have stopped? I Googled “breast pain and menopause” and there were nearly 780,000 hits! So I am not the only one suffering!
I thought all this would go once my periods stopped but little did I know. As I keep finding out, there is a whole world of “secret women’s business” going on out there that you do not find out about until you too hit the dreaded menopause.
Anyway by searching the Net I did find out some interesting facts. One was that caffeine can make them worse because it dilates blood vessels and stretches nerves- perhaps cutting back on the coffee and coca cola will help me. Taking evening primrose oil was also a suggestion. I will try anything to make this discomfort go away. Perhaps in my 70’s I will finally get some relief- if I can wait another 20 years!
