Natural Approaches to fibrocystic breasts by Dr. Tori Hudson Tender or lumpy breastsare one of the most common reasons why women consult their gynecologists
http://www.vitanica.com/articles_07.htm

Extractions: Tender or lumpy breasts are one of the most common reasons why women consult their gynecologists for assessment and treatment. Since painful breasts are not always lumpy, and lumpy breasts are not always painful (and neither is usually abnormal), it is useful to create descriptive categories of symptoms and conditions to replace the generic term "fibrocystic". Virtually all knowledgeable health care providers agree that the term fibrocystic breast "disease" or "condition" should be abandoned in favor of a more accurate physiologically based description. First of all, the benign breast conditions that are present in almost all of us to some degree should never have been given the "disease" label in the first place. Moreover, the widespread misconception that women with painful or lumpy breasts are at increased risk of breast cancer borders on the tragic. Unfortunately, our health care system requires a diagnostic code to reimburse services, and fibrocystic breast disease has one, even though the medical literature is replete with reasons why it shouldn't. This reinforces misinformation and fear and obscures the safe and simple means that exist for obtaining relief and reassurance.

There can be water in the tubes that lead from the glands to the nipple too.

Does HRT therapy aggravate the situation? I am a 52 year old female, and was on HRT from 45 to 51 when cysts began to be more frequent and harder. I take vitamins and exercise on a regular basis. I would like to continue the HRT for other health benefits if it does not hinder the cysts. I am not currently taking anything prescribed by a doctor but am taking the herb black cohosh as my friends say it is helpful to them. ". Sasha Fibrocystic breast disease is an improper name; it is really a condition made up of many different pathological changes which we do not fully understand. Perhaps it should be called a syndrome or fibrocystic breast condition. There are three cell components involved: the skin lining the breast milk ducts (epithelium), the glands of the breast and the supporting stromal cells or matrix of connective tissue that lends fibrous fullness to the breasts. In general, estrogen stimulates growth of the ductal epithelium and growth of the supporting stroma or fibrous connective tissue. Progesterone or synthetic progestins make the glandular tissue grow. In pregnancy when both estrogen and progesterone are very high, the breasts are very full and almost hard. In menopause, without hormone replacement, the breasts are the opposite. They are collapsed and soft.

"Attitude is everything. It motivates action, which increases productivity and improves morale, which perpetuates a positive attitude." At least 60% of women between the ages of 30 to 50 are told by their physician that they have Fibrocystic breast disease. This is a common non cancerous condition that responds to monthly changes in the levels of estrogen and progesterone, female hormones produced by the ovaries during a woman's reproductive years. Medical professionals use different names to refer to this condition. Common names are Fibrocystic breasts, fibrous breast tissue, cystic breasts, or dense breast tissue. Symptoms of Fibrocystic Disease The most common sign of fibrocystic breast is soft, movable lumps in the breasts, tenderness, cysts (packets of fluid) breast pain, and areas of thickness. The symptoms tend to worsen before a woman's menstrual cycle. It is during this time that the breast tissue causes enlarged milk ducts and the breasts retain water. However, after the menstrual cycle, swelling in the breast usually decreases, causing the breast to feel less tender and lumpy. For most women these symptoms are a temporary discomfort, but for most women the pain can be severe that it precludes exercise or even lying on the abdomen.

Extractions: E-mail this page to a friend Usually, fibrocystic changes can be diagnosed by physical examination or mammography. Fortunately, only about 5% of fibrocystic conditions have the type of changes that would be considered a risk factor of developing breast cancer. The cause of fibrocystic changes is related to the way breast tissue responds to monthly changes in the levels of estrogen and progesterone. During the monthly menstrual cycle, the breast tissue alternately swells and returns to normal. Hormonal stimulation of the breast tissue causes the ducts to enlarge, and the breasts to retain water. The breasts may feel swollen, painful, tender, and lumpy at this time. After menstruation, swelling in the breast usually decreases, and the breasts feel less tender and lumpy. As a result of repeated hormone stimulation, there is an increase in firmness of the tissue, and pockets of fluid called cysts may form in obstructed or enlarged milk ducts feeling like tiny beads scattered throughout the breasts. Generally, fibrocystic changes are found in both breasts and most frequently are found in the upper outer quadrant and the underside of the breast. The condition tends to subside after menopause. Natural progesterone can help support hormone imbalances that lead to the development of fibrocystic breasts. Fibroid tumors are usually benign (non-cancerous) tumors found most commonly in the uterus of women, although they occasionally develop on other organs which contain smooth muscle cells. At least one-quarter of all women in their 30's and 40's develop fibroids that are usually asymptomatic, but can cause excessive menstrual bleeding, pain, heaviness and discomfort. Most fibroids don't require treatment, however, when bleeding or other symptoms become severe, a woman may choose to have them removed.
Fibrocystic Breast Disease - Treatment And Information
a woman is in her late 40's and 50's, her periods become irregular as menopause approaches,and symptoms of fibrocystic breasts become correspondingly erratic.
http://www.go-symmetry.com/health/fibrocystic-breast.htm

Extractions: Fibrocystic Breast Disease Fibrocystic breast is disease or condition indicated by the presence of lumps in the woman's breast, these lumps are normally firm, rubbery, round shaped, and they can be moved around underneath the skin. One or both breasts will become lumpy and tender, even painful, in the week or so before the menstruation begins. The symptoms are caused by: poor dietary choices, hormonal changes, and intestinal health . The condition often progresses through three phases. In phase one, which occurs when a woman is between 15 and 27 years old, there may be a few lumps in the breasts. Typically, the breasts are tender during the week just before menstruation cycle starts. In phase two, during the ages between 30 and 40 the tenderness intensifies and pain may occur. The breasts become more nodular and the lumps are more noticeable during the week or so before the menstrual period begins. And in phase 3 when a woman is in her late 40's and 50's, her periods become irregular as menopause approaches, and symptoms of fibrocystic breasts become correspondingly erratic. The discomfort may come and go, pain may appear quite suddenly, and the breasts may become very very sensitive. ...

Extractions: Each woman is unique, so amount and timing may be adjusted. Thoroughly cleanse skin, and then gently massage cream into skin for 2 to 3 minutes until it is thoroughly absorbed. The best places to do this are in the thinner and softer skin areas, including the back of the hands, inner arms, breasts, thighs, face, neck, or throat. Progesterone is not needed during menstruation. The dosage of cream can be reduced gradually as symptoms disappear. Many women feel different in one to three cycles. During pregnancy, many women find that applying 1/4 teaspoon of natural progesterone cream daily will minimize stretch marks and help keep the skin looking youthful. PMS affects over 25 million women. Once considered to be "in a woman's head", PMS is now recognized as a real health problem. PMS is a collection of over 150 reoccurring symptoms that usually appear between ovulation and to the onset of menstruation, when levels of progesterone are deficient and/or estrogen is dominant. PMS appears to be a progesterone deficiency. Many of the symptoms women suffer are influenced by the imbalance of hormonal levels. Until now, women had to endure PMS symptoms. The broad range of PMS symptoms such as bloating, irritability, moodiness, food cravings, crying, fatigue, depression, and anxiety often are influenced by hormonal imbalance. Dr. K. Dalton, who has successfully used progesterone therapy for over 30 years in England, reports complete relief of symptoms.

What are fibrocystic breasts? fibrocystic breasts are simply lumpy breasts. Mostwomen have fibrocystic breasts or fluidfilled cysts in their breasts.
http://www.ywcaabilene.org/bca_faqs.php

Extractions: A mammogram is simply an X-ray of the breast. Breast tissue is compressed between two plates and held for only a few seconds while the technician steps behind a protective plate and activates the machine. Two views of each breast are taken for a normal screening mammogram. If the woman has had breast cancer or suspicious findings before, the technician may take three views which is then called a diagnostic mammogram. Is the radiation harmful? A mammogram is uncomfortable for the few seconds that the breast tissue is compressed but, when done by a certified technician, there is no bruising or continuing pain. Again, the short-lived discomfort is certainly worth the possible early detection of breast cancer. Is a mammogram always accurate?

Extractions: An Option from Traditional Chinese Medicine Breast lumps or cysts are the most common reason for women to seek medical consultation in the United States. Like every other part of our bodies, our breasts are subject to various types of problems. Breast lumps can occur in women of any age, but are more common in middle age. Although the majority of breast lumps are benign or non-cancerous, women still experience the discomfort of tenderness, pressure or distention within the breast. Conventional medicine provides women with a variety of treatments for breast lumps. Traditional Chinese medicine, which has accumulated abundant experience and knowledge in treating and preventing breast lumps over its long history, is another option for achieving and maintaining healthy breast tissue.
Botanical Therapies For Fibrocystic Breast Disease
Standard treatment for severe fibrocystic breasts has been oral androgentherapy to counteract the effect of endogenous estrogens.
http://medherb.com/92JILL.HTM

Extractions: Medical Herbalism: A Journal for the Herbal Practitioner Important: This article is reprinted from a medical level journal and assumes that the reader has a medical education. It contains references to botanical medicines that may be toxic or cause adverse effects. Individuals should not use the information in this article for self-treatment. If you are sick, see a licensed health care provider. Treatment for fibrocystic lesions varies greatly between standard allopathic medicine and natural medicine. Allopathic medicine may offer hormonal therapies. Standard treatment for severe fibrocystic breasts has been oral androgen therapy to counteract the effect of endogenous estrogens. The commonly prescribed drug danazol reduces the release of all gonadotropins from the pituitary. According to naturopathic theory, people who consume a lot of meat, eggs, and dairy products may also ingest estrogens in small amounts due to hormonal residues in animal products. Animals are often fed estrogens to bring them to market weight more quickly, or to increase milk and egg production. Hormonal residues consumed on a regular basis may also contribute to the hormonal load on the body. Recently, the hormonal influences of accumulated pesticides in the environment has also drawn scientific attention. The view in naturopathic medicine is that, since it is the liver's job to metabolize hormones in circulation, liver disease can lead to the development of hyperestrogenism and fibrocystic breasts. The liver removes active estrogens from circulation, conjugating them and releasing them to the gastrointestinal tract for elimination. When the liver is inundated with work to do, such as processing many hormones, emulsifying fats and cholesterol, removing toxins, pesticides, drugs, alcohol, or other substances from the blood, it may have a difficult job metabolizing estrogens. When the bowels are constipated or when there are undesirable bacterial flora present, estrogens that have been conjugated in the liver for elimination are unconjugated in the intestine, reabsorbed, and returned to the liver a second and even third time, adding to the liver's workload. Methyl-xanthines occurring in coffee, cola, chocolate, and black teas will also aggravate fibrocystic disease.
