I am 29 years old and have been experiencing breast tenderness and painful to the touch, I am female and I dont think I am pregnant because I have had two periods since the last time I had intercourse. Any reason I could be having these pains in the breasts? thank you.

Hi,

Yeast infection being aggravated by friction during sexual act caused inflammation & soreness. This caused pain in urination & sex, pain in vulva & urethra

The little cramps suggest spread of infection in uterus too. The treatment of yeast consists of self-care in the form of improved genital hygiene +application of antifungal ointment & use of vaginal pessary that your treating gynecologist had prescribed.

Oral medication in form fluconazole pills are to be taken as per advice by gynecologist.

The pills & local treatment is to be given to your spouse also. So that the infection control is perfect.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
