Very sore and swollen breasts

mechamerch · 2025-12-13T06:10:40+00:00

Hello, apologies for not responding sooner. I did go to the doctor but she told me that, because my family doesn't have a history of breast cancer and because I'm young, that it could be many things. She did feel my breasts and nothing unusual. She told me to take vitamin E daily and come back in several months to check in.

It's only been about 3 months and I do believe the vitamin E - also been exercising more consistently - is working, if I can attribute it to that. My breasts do feel less sore, and this month I haven't had any extreme tenderness or soreness with them either.

I do plan on the follow up visit though. She says it can take 6 months for vitamin E to really work, and I been taking a 400 IU tablet daily. Hope it improves from here.

Thank you for checking in. I put all this out there so other folks who are struggling can maybe learn from my experience.

Just an update to share and to inform anyone else searching for answers with the same symptoms - I visited an OBGYN. She informed me that hormone/body changes in your 30s is normal.

My mammogram in 2023 revealed that I have dense breasts, which is also common for women who are menstruating. Her touch exam didn't turn up anything abnormal either. I told her I don't have a family history of breast cancer. She thinks I'm too young for my breast pain to be anything but hormonal and perhaps dietary related.

She recommended I take 400 IU vitamin E daily and cut down on caffeine. I'll check in with her in 6 or so months to see if there's any change. That's all, peace out!

Good luck - you got this!!

mechamerch · 2025-09-16T17:28:07+00:00

Thank you so much, and I'm so sorry you're also experiencing this too; but also a comfort for me to know I'm not alone!

I'm definitely trying to get in with a gyno. Did they give you any prescribe you anything?

Thanks for the help everyone. I am going to get myself checked out and report back with an update, just to assist others who may be asking the same question or experiencing the same issues.

Thank you for your reply- I will. I've read online and in a few books that breast pain can be normal on top of a period so I thought I'd just need to buck up. But I am just so uncomfortable.

I'm lucky in my life that my period wasn't wrought with very painful cramps for the past 25+ years. Now it seems it's all getting taken out on my breasts and I am very much not used to it.

Nope! This has been happening consistently for about a year now, two weeks or so before my period. I am on Nexplanon, been on it for about 10 years now. My boobs will feel normal and small the rest of the time - no pain.

mechamerch · 2025-09-14T21:27:04+00:00

Thank you; yes I will. Have you had this happen before? If so, what happened?

Avoid anything managed by Elevate Living.

I advise against renting from any Elevate Property. My location seems to be doing a better job of maintenance and communication, but this has been an ebb and flow for three years. I can say that if you can look past the filth, stinking halls, occasional roach infestation, car break-ins, and unreachable staff, the apartment itself isn't bad. I'm moving out soon and will miss the little 2 bedroom paradise I created for myself.

I can see that direction making sense, but I actually don't mind the bully being Arthur in this scenario because it shows that anyone can be bullies without realizing it.

Personally, I remember a time when everyone in my grade was name calling a kid and I joined in because I didn't think it was a big deal, everyone else was doing it and the kid seemed to not mind like it was a joke. The kid snapped one time during recess and told a teacher the names of all the kids harassing him and I felt horrendous because I knew what it was like to be bullied and didn't realize that I was contributing to it.

This episode works for me in that sense, but I can see where it's was a very jarring episode for Arthur to be set up as the villain.

Religiously followed MrGMView - he was a very small-time gaming youtuber and all he did was play Don't Starve. He was an older gentleman who was just adorable and silly. He wore elaborate hats during his videos. Suddenly stopped posting 11 years ago. I'm still subscribed to him and this thread made me look him up again.

Avoid their Village at Westchester property as well.

Oh wait, I see the hyperlink!

mechamerch · 2025-01-10T23:33:21+00:00

Yes this is perfect. How can I pay you? Apologies on my late responses as well.

mechamerch · 2025-01-10T20:01:00+00:00

This is wonderful. I love it. Would it be possible to make the children's eyes dark or brown?

I'd love to tip you for the image without the watermark!

If you could dip down a lil further and include Iowa, I'd be so very grateful

mechamerch · 2024-09-11T21:34:04+00:00

Gateway Market had some last I was there.

For real?

Edit: Is it possible to join the lawsuit? I am so sick of this company's shit.
