Your breast size, shape, and density can majorly shift over time. Did you know that you can also get achy period boobs during perimenopause? Read on to find out more.
Just as our vaginas and vulvas change as we age, so do our breasts. These changes range from how breasts look to how they feel, due to a myriad of reasons, including age, hormones, pregnancy, and breast cancer and reconstructive surgery. We’re not typically briefed on the health and development of our breasts, except for maybe the typical health class spiel we receive in high school – like how they’ll grow and develop milk for babies to breastfeed – but that’s pretty much it. That’s why it’s important to know how our chest and breast tissue changes throughout the decades.
