It : It sounds like you are positive you are not pregnant; if not then take a pregnancy test to be sure. If you are on any medications or herbal supplements then check those to see if they can affect the breast tissue and cause gynecomastia (enlargement of breasts). See if you have had any significant weight changes. If none of these are the case, it would be worthwhile to be evaluated by your doctor if this is a significant change for you.
