Breast tenderness doesn’t always feels good. You’re uncomfortable when putting on clothes, exercising or having sex, and it really bothers you. Did you know that most women experience breast pain? That’s right. Doctors also call it mastalgia and say that it’s normal to have it from time to time. The most common reasons for breast pain are

• PMS and period
• Changes of reproductive hormones during puberty, pregnancy, or menopause
• Breast size and support
• Imbalance of fatty acids
• Cysts 
• Breastfeeding issues

Here are a couple of ideas for treating cyclical mastopatia:  

• Increase your calcium and reduce sodium  
• Oral contraceptives intake  
• Some medications (e.g. estrogen blockers) 
• Pain relievers 

However, breast pain rarely requires serious medical attention, so if you think something is wrong, or your mastopatia becomes too severe or persists, call your doctor.
