Possible pregnancy: First get a pregnancy test. Next examine your own breasts for lumps or tenderness. Thirs- avoid push up or underwire bras and certainly consult your GYN for hormonal evaluation.

Normal finding: I am amazed about how often I have women ask me about the veins on their breast. Occasionally they are spider veins but mostly they are blue veins. These are almost always normal findings and normal variations of chest veins. They tend to be more pronounced in fair skinned females. Your symptoms may be normal, genetic, hormonal or even related to pregnancy. See your Ob or Vein Specialist.
