Can anyone suggest anything to help with sore boobs?
Posted , 3 users are following.
So at last the itching is just about bearable and now my boobs feel like someone kicked me
I thought maybe it was a period coming, I still have been getting them every 3 months or so but they have been sore for about 6 weeks now. Worst in the morning.
Anyone offer any suggestions what might help please?
I read evening primrose but it made me really constipated
Thank you for reading x

Any possibility of having some blood work done to check your estrogens and progesterone levels? I used to have this issue along with others and I was tested and it was shown that my estrogens were going unopposed with zilch progesterone. I was started on out progesterone cream so many days of out the month, then most recently I started the micronized progesterone pill. This has worked like a charm.
Everyone is different, but having an idea what you are lacking or not, is beneficial before taking supplements or meds.
I hope you get to the bottom of the issue quickly.

Annie is 100% right.
Is the doctor that's following you a GP or a Gyno?
If you with a GP only you could be very firm is requesting to be referred to a Gyno.
Are you on any HRT? It really looks like you'd be better off with some progesterone.
Regardless of this and meanwhile why not try these things:
- Vitex- Agnus castus (herbal), it promotes progesterone production if the pituitary is still in the mood;
- Milk thistle + Vit. B6 to cleanse the liver and lower "bad" oestrogen build up;
I'll PM you a few links. Take care. X Teresa.

I'm not on HRT and she put me off it.
I would like to try and manage but like all of us it is hard and a lot of the time painful.
I take B6 already and have some milk thistle so will add that back in.
Thank you, I so appreciate your help xx
