A member asked:
Why do breasts hurt even after you have had a hysterectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Still have hormones: Hysterectomy just takes the uterus out - not the ovaries which produce the hormones. Usually breast tenderness is caused by hormonal changes which occur around the time of ovulation and just before the period comes.
