I have constant sharp pain on the side of my breast and they often become a big bigger than normal what could be the problem?

Hormones: The breasts develop due to an increase in estrogen during puberty. During the menstrual cycle, various hormones cause changes in breast tissue that can lead to pain or discomfort in some women. While breasts do not typically hurt, occasional breast pain is common. Breast pain can cause a lot of anxiety, and many women worry about breast cancer. Breast pain is not a usual sign of breast cancer.
