Dr Braun thank you for answering my question one more please. I am 45 and have an ovarian cyst. I am experiencing perimenopause. this month breast pain much more intense than in the past I was told that this was the sign of increased estrogen both cyst and pain. Are you saying that I should be experiencing less lumps now or as I age from here on and reach menopause. I am confused and would appreciate an answer. The doctor I saw yesterday made it sound like during perimeonpause women can experience begine changes due to this time of life. Is this not correct? I have experienced some family losses recently about my age due to other health problems so do not want to become parionoid but had a wakeup call.
