Tender breasts, light bleeding post menopausal

Posted by nembrotti @nembrotti, Feb 2, 2025

56 years old, post menopausal, however I have tender breasts and now some light bleeding. I’m sure it’s hormonal as have symptoms such as headache. Also which is really strange after having hot flashes daily for the past 4 years these have now disappeared since breast tenderness and bleeding arrived. Just wanted to see if this has happened to any other post menopausal women .
Thanks in advance
Jill

@nembrotti
I am 55 and believe I am in menopause now. I still have an IUD that needs to be removed in a year or two. When I got Covid, I got sensitive breasts and bleeding after not having these symptoms for a couple years. Have you been sick recently or under a lot of stress that may have triggered these symptoms? Have you changed any medications/supplements or changed diet?

Hi

I was checked, ultrasound/examination and thankfully was all ok. The gynaecologist said it can happen even in post menopausal that you can still experience slight bleeding.

I would though just get checked to put your mind at ease.

Best

I am 64 and have had swollen painful breasts for a few years now. They come and go at random and are so uncomfortable.
I take Evening Primrose but they do not seem to help.
Does anyone have any remedies that work for them?

What does your gynecologist say about this?
