Is it normal for breasts to hurt and be tender 3 days after your period ends?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sometimes: Women in their 40's are not ovulating as frequently and having many estrogen only menstrual cycles. Estrogen is known to produce breast swelling from fluid and enlargement. In combination with "fibrocystic breasts", can allow pain to continue 3 days post menses. Exercise with a breast binder and decreased caffeine intake pre-menstrually can help.
