A member asked:

Ive been haveing some soreness around my boob area i dont feel any unormal lump and i am just getting off my period should i be worried?

Breast pain: It is good that you are doing self breast exams. Breast tissue can be more tender with your menses. Recheck in a week and if the tenderness persists, bring it to the attention of your doctor.
