Introduction
Breast changes are a natural part of a woman's life, influenced by hormonal shifts during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause. Understanding these changes can help you stay informed and proactive about your breast health.
Puberty
During puberty, increased estrogen levels stimulate the development of breast tissue, leading to growth and changes in shape.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
In pregnancy, hormones like estrogen and progesterone cause the breasts to enlarge and prepare for milk production. Prolactin plays a crucial role in lactation.

Menopause
As estrogen levels decline during menopause, breast tissue may become less dense and more fatty, potentially leading to changes in size and firmness.
