A member asked:

My breasts feel very heavy and tender after i sit up from lying down. its very painful. they're always tender anyway. what could this be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Breast tender: At age 19 your breasts are usually not as heavy and painful as you describe. I would start with a visit to a gynecologist.
