Patient's question:
Hypertrophy of the breast, bilateral, with relatively severe symptoms. About 8-9 days before menstruation, it becomes particularly painful. After taking the medicine for a period of time, I stopped it myself. For a long time afterward, there was no pain, but the lumps were still very noticeable. In May 2009, the doctor said it was mild fibrosis, which made me quite upset. Then it gradually worsened.What are the general side effects of Chinese herbal medicine for treating breast hyperplasia?
