Just turned 40 here unfortunately my chest is too side and lower fullness so though I don’t care anymore and am happy it’s just breast tissue in and of itself I wish it didn’t look so full but feel contrary to it being that does aide to masking it more

mammogram every two years, just to be on the safe side.  It's not fun, but better than a colonoscopy.

LOL! Fully agree and great perspective.

@Dude and JJ - I know it can be frustrating to not know a cause, but I am glad that it is just that and nothing else serious.

Same case for me, but I’m nearing 60, and at that point it is common, so as long as standard tests are in range and with prostrate issues my doctors seem unconcerned (like why bother, you have it, whatever, its not abnormal)

Looks both supportive and like it would be stealth under a light polo, like wearing a standard tank undershirt under it, even better if breathable… what brand?

New bra absolutely love the color and fit and breathability of it. Came in pack of 4 and have been wearing them everyday around the house and gym and such. Great fit and comfort.

I have a couple cans of bag balm around the house at all times.  Have used it since I was in my teens.  Hands, dry heals and the last several years on dry cracked nipples.  Its great.  I have found that if I wasn't having "deep" pain it was always dry and itchy nipples.  That's when the balm came out.  As noted that's when a pain  reliever came out.

My annual medical appointment was yesterday.  He asked if I wanted a breast exam and I said no. I check my breasts every month myself.  
I did ask for my annual mammogram.

My previous doctor was a woman.  She showed me how to do a self breast exam.  I have grown a little since then, but no lumps.  Still, I get a mammogram every two years, just to be on the safe side.  It's not fun, but better than a colonoscopy.

You might also try bag balm.  When I was a kid, we used it on dairy cows.  When my wife was nursing our children, it was the recommended treatment for sore and dry nipples.  I used some when I was experiencing nipple pain and soreness.  I think it helped, but my go to was Tylenol.

I use a hemp based salve from joy organics. It works really well for pain and also moisturizes.
And Tylenol works also.
