What Do Bruises On The Breast Indicate?
For the past two months I ve woken up with bruising on each breast. Some days they aren t so bad and some days i wake up and they ve gotten bigger and darker. There are no lumps that i can feel of but I m still worried about the random bruising. Is this something i should take seriously and get checked out?

Hello,
Thank you for trusting HCM
Unexplained bruising can occur in women around menstrual cycle. it can also.be due to any underlying bleeding disorder or due to intake of medications like aspirin, clopidogrel, warfarin etc. Complete blood count, differential count, peripheral smear, bleeding time and clotting time are indicated at this point for evaluation
Please be advised to follow up with your primary care provider for necessary evaluation.
