Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 23 years old. Every time before my period, my breasts get sore and swollen. I go to class and can't even sit up, so I have to lie in the dorm. Moreover, the soreness and swelling in my breasts also affect my appetite. I would like to ask the doctor, what medicine should I take for breast soreness and swelling before my period?Doctor's answer:
During the menstrual period, breast pain and tenderness is likely caused by mammary hyperplasia. Mammary hyperplasia is neither inflammation nor a tumor; it is a functional disorder resulting from endocrine imbalance. It commonly occurs during the menstrual period and early pregnancy, among other times, due to excessive estrogen levels during these periods. You can take Rupixiao or Xiaoyao pills and regularly massage your breasts. Pay attention to your dietary habits, eat more vegetables and easily digestible foods, enhance your physical fitness, and boost your immunity.
