Thanks for that link toffeecushion. I have had painful swollen boobs before my period as far back as I can remember, have tried everything, medication from my doctor, starflower oil and evening primrose oil. Last year I had horrendous, heavy periods which was really unusual for me and now haven't had a proper period since mid December but hooray no painful, huge boobs either. I'm not on HRT so this post and your previous one has explained a lot. x
