What Causes Tenderness And Itching In The Breasts?

I took the plan B pill about 5 hours after I had unprotected sex and I had been off my cycle for about 4 days when this happened. This was in November around the 16 or 17 and I have not had a cycle since then. I have not had sex since this happened. I have some breast tenderness and my breast itchy sometimes uncontrollably. I am 47 and do have some symptoms of being in the perimenopausal stage also. So, I do have times when my cycles have been very irregular as far as coming as specific times. They use to come every 23 days and now they just come whenever it chooses to. What is going on?
