What Could Cause A Sudden Increase In The Size Of Breast After Menopause?
In the last 6months my breasts have enlarged greatly. I have been very flat chested all my life and now at 58 they have begun to grow. Went through menopause several years ago because of a hysterectomy. What could be the cause? My mother and two of her sisters hah breast cancer.

About one in five women experienced an increase in breast size after menopause. The most important factor associated with such an increase was found to be weight gain.
