Title: breast fluctuation??!!
Post by: flygirl82 on February 27, 2010, 01:12:34 PM
Hi ladies
So I have a question for those who are on hormones.  I have been on hormones for about 8 months... in the beginning starting with just one monthly injection for 4 months which I felt not to be effective but unfortunately was the only thing I could do at the time due to clinic and distance (I could feel by weeks 2 ending that my body no longer had estrogen).  I now do injections twice a month.  However my issue is breast fluctuation.  A couple days ago I filled an A cup bra (im 5'4 110 so im a small girl) and now im pretty much non existent in terms of breast.  This is really annoying as it seems to happen a lot.  it tends to happen around week two.  or right after i give myself a shot for a couple days.  I guess im just wondering is this normal??  its rather embarrassing as i live with my boyfriend and one day i have boobs and another  I don't...  I have a doctors appointment early march and obviously will talk to her about that... I'm also going to talk to her about progesterone, do you ladies think that will help?  I don't know I'm just really upset this keeps happening.  Thanks for reading:) :)

might be ducts expanding and contracting, asking for prolactin testing would conform or deny it. (as in little lipid growth/transfer/whatever is taking place)
