A member asked:

Need expert advice. after left ovary and tube removal, is having breast tenderness normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably: Breast tenderness in general is not an ominous sign. The loss of your tube and ovary will have no direct effect on your breasts, but there conceivably could be an indirect effect because the loss might trigger irregular cycles and greater hormonal fluctuations.
