A member asked:

My breasts have been sore for over a month already, they hurt alittle bit in the center of my boobs behind my nipples mostly just when itouch?

Maybe hormonal: This could be hormonal, and is sometimes common for women your age. Although, you won't know for sure unless you have a breast exam. It would be wise to have your breast thoroughly examined by a doctor just to be sure. Best wishes.
