What Causes Fatigue, Memory Loss And Tenderness In The Breasts?
I have been extremely tired and weak and loss of short and some long term memory and breasts are very tender constantly. I am 50 and I just attribute it to being possible perimenopausal. Your thoughts? My mother and grandmother both died of ovarian cancer. Grandmother was approx. 84 and my mother was 57.

Hello,
It might be due to minor hormonal changes, these symptoms are common in middle-aged women.
As first-line management, you can take drugs like mefenamic acid for pain relief.
Hormone replacement therapy also will be useful.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
