A member asked:
Can a change in thyroid medication cause breast pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It shouldn't: Particularly if you're on the right dose of brand name T4 replacement and your levels are normal and stable. Severe under active thyroid can elevate a hormone known as prolactin, which can cause breast enlargement, but generally not pain. Check w/your doctor.
