Best Answer

Many possible causes exist for pain or tenderness in one of your breasts or in both breasts. Most often the pain can be attributed to harmless causes such as puberty or pregnancy. It can also be a recurrent problem for women with cyclical pain associated with the menstrual cycle. Although cancer is a major concern for most women, it is rarely the cause of isolated breast pain. * Some causes of breast pain are:

** Fibrocystic breast disease

** Premenstrual syndrome, cyclic mastalgia

** Normal hormonal fluctuations

** Onset of puberty or menopause

** Pregnancy

** Breastfeeding (nursing)

** Estrogen therapy

** Chest wall tenderness (costochondritis)

** Injury to the breast (trauma, after breast surgery)
