Hot showers I've found to help. That and wearing a sports bra. Sometimes they're moer painful when not wearing a bra so a sports bra gives that comfort support without the wiring ad tightness.

Yes it could be a side effect of your birth control or if it's around your menstrual cycle it could be your body's reaction to your period ie. Pms
