Breast exam/bra: First get a breast exam and make sure your mammograms are up to date, Additionally check your bras for tightness and/or underwire or elastic compression or pinching.

No: there should be no breast symptoms associated with menopause. Nor chest wall pain or any symptoms. Please check with your PCP or gynecologist
