Breast pain – causes, treatment

I’d like to know about breast pain. It worries me that my nipples are sore and swollen on a regular basis.

Breast pain, if it is the only symptom, most likely is related to the hormonal play during the menstrual cycle. However, before everything is assigned to these unfortunate hormones, you should check if there are any organic changes in the breast. Then, however, the symptoms are constant, unlike those that appear in the second half of the cycle and depend on hormones, and disappear with the onset of menstruation. During diagnostics, it is also good to determine the level of prolactin, which is often elevated and causes changes in the breasts manifested by pain. In the case of breast pain, for example, contraceptive pills can be used – if this pain is accompanied by other symptoms of premenstrual syndrome: abdominal distension, feeling of fullness, irritability, drowsiness. Medicines that work only on the breasts can also be used. But it is decided by the gynecologist. I encourage you to observe when this pain occurs and how it relates to your period.
