A member asked:

My breasts/nipples were very sore about a week ago and are now less sore but my breast now feel very heavy. is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Soreness: Please do a urine pregnancy test, since being pregnant can cause breast tenderness and enlargement, then see a doctor to be checked.
