A member asked:

Is it normal for one of my breast to hurt a week after my period ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Week before, yes: Aching or pain in the breast the week before your period is normal and common due to pre menstrual swelling. If the swelling has gone down post period and pain is still occurring, see your MD for evaluation.
