What Causes Hot Flushes And Breast Tenderness Post Hysterectomy?

At age 69, am experiencing breast tenderness in right breast only, similar tenderness as when I was me starting and menopausal. Had complete hyster 21 years ago. Tenderness does not seem to want to go away...have had for several weeks. Wondering if it is just the last of hormones raging...have had a few warm flushes as well.
