Warm, Tender Breasts Posted: 05-04-08 04:33am
Hi, I am 27 years old and been on the
pill, Microgynon 30, due to my periods
being heavy and painful. Now my breasts
are warm and tender, also my left one is
bigger. My Doctor told me not to worry and
changed my pill, which I start in a week!
Can the pill cause this?? Any help would
be grateful!

Yes, birth control hormones can affect
your breasts. It can make both of them,
or one of them grow and enlarge slightly
due to the hormones in the pill.
Switching brands may or may not help this.
Everyone's body reacts differently to
different pills. Good luck!

It could very well be from the pills.
Change in shape or size is also a sign
you'll want to check out with a doc if it
doesn't go away, it can be (rarely) a
warning sign for cancer.
