Hi, I am 45 years old and having breast pain since last 1.5 months. It looks as if it is pricking from inside in the right breast. I have abnormal periods also. So should I get them examined or it is because of hormonal changes.

The breasts develop due to an increase in estrogen during puberty. During the menstrual cycle, various hormones cause changes in breast tissue that can lead to pain or discomfort in some women. Breast pain, also called mastalgia, is a common condition among women.
