A member asked:

Does thyroid make your breasts tender?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NO: Breast can become tender because of hormonal issues. And thyroid hormone does affect various other hormones in the body so indirectly it may be related. But there is no direct reason fro thyroid to causeyour breasts to be tender.
