A member asked:

Breast tenderness post total hysterectomy is it normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Look at hrt: If ovaries are gone and on hormone replacement you may need to lower the estrogen dose; if there is an abrupt cessation of estrogen it can lead to many other sx's but genrally not breast pain; consider perhaps a lower dose of Estradiol if on that.
