My breasts are both warm and tender. They sometimes look red too. I've seen my doctor who put me in Microgynon 30, but its making my breasts this way! I am worried its something bad. I've got Yazmin to take but I need to wait a week, just finished my old pills. Whats going on?? It is cancer??

Your symptoms (warm and tender both breasts) are not typical for breast cancer. Breast cancer is usually manifested by finding a palpable lump inside the breast.


Your symptoms could be side effects from the birth control pills.


You may want to consult your primary health provider or your gynecologist.
