Answer
Breast tenderness or pain is a frequent early symptom of pregnancy, attributed to hormonal shifts. The increase in estrogen and progesterone causes breast tissue to swell and become more sensitive. Pain can be experienced throughout the breast or may be localized to specific areas. The intensity of breast pain varies greatly, and many women only experience mild discomfort.
If you are experiencing severe pain or have other concerns, consulting a healthcare provider is advisable. They can differentiate between typical pregnancy-related changes and other potential health issues.Consult Now
