Lena Dunham breaks up with Brooklyn for the West Village

Look out, West Village — Lena Dunham is your problem now.

In a New York magazine profile out Monday, the controversial 32-year-old creator of “Girls” announced she’s left Brooklyn for the quaint Manhattan ‘hood.

“My whole identity was like, Brooklyn, and now I’m like, Thank you, Lord, I’m back amongst my tribe, which is like old people puttering around the health-food store,” she told the magazine’s Allison P. Davis.

The main impetus for her move, it seems, was to avoid the mommy-centric stroller world of brownstone Brooklyn.

Last winter, the writer and actress underwent an elective hysterectomy to ease the symptoms of her endometriosis — pain so severe, she said, she couldn’t wait to freeze her eggs.

“I just wanna live around old people who are not reminding me every day of my infertility and loneliness,” said Dunham.

In the interview — during which she picked blackheads from the chin of her hairless cat, Irma — the 32-year-old spares no details of her medical procedures, comparing her ovary to a fried clam and boasting that her uterus was “the most misshapen and diseased” her surgeon had ever seen.

Now, the “Camping” executive producer isn’t limiting her career aspirations to the culture space. She’d like to be the face of fibromyalgia — as if the vague musculoskeletal disease doesn’t already have a bad enough reputation.

Health woes aside, Dunham delves into other important issues, such as why people hate her.

She says her musician ex-boyfriend Jack Antonoff told her, “You have to look at the fact that when you say things, you’re not just trying to please; sometimes you’re actively trying to displease people.”

Dunham also admits she hasn’t spoken to her onetime friend Lorde since rumors surfaced that Antonoff was cheating on her with the singer.

She was less forthcoming about her split from Jenni Konner, her former producing partner on HBO’s “Girls” and “Camping” as well as the now-defunct Lenny newsletter.

“Maybe my fame made me impossible to be close to,” she mused.

Apparently, things got so bad at Lenny that the editorial team asked her to stop calling in to meetings.

But Dunham has a revelation: “Yeah, I’m not for everyone.” So she’s formulating a plan to make herself more scarce.

She won’t go to parties if there are more than five other people in attendance. And she is trying to stop using autobiographical details in her writing and focus on telling other people’s stories — adapting “A Hope More Powerful Than the Sea,” the true tale of a Syrian refugee stranded in the Mediterranean.

But with her trademark desire to overshare, the actress refuses to do one thing that’s been recommended: Quit Instagram.

“I’m like, ‘B—ch, you get three million followers, then delete your account.’”

Perhaps she should just heed the advice of New Yorker editor David Remnick.

“All I would tell her is not try to do everything. Not have to say everything or react instantly,” he told the magazine. “For the sake of her own work and the sake of her own ability to live in this world.”
