fibroids/breast pain after losing weight?

[Guest guest]

Since I lost the weight, I have noticed that my breasts have been

tender for the 10 days or so before my period, whereas before, that

was only for a few days prior. Now I have a lumpy thing in one

breast that is quite painful. I am thinking it is a fibroid cyst.

I do have a doc appt on the 12th to get checked out. But i know

that losing weight can effect hormones which can cause the cysts. I

also know that one way to treat the problem is to be on the pill.

Since I want to conceive soon, I'd rather not.

Has anyone else dealt with this problem, and what did you do about

it?
