FIBROCYSTIC BREAST DISEASE

At our center we use complementary and naturopathic medicines to treat fibrocystic breast disease. Fibrocystic breast disease has been linked to excess estrogen in the body. This can be confirmed with a female hormone evaluation panel; a saliva test that measures estrogen and progesterone fluctuations throughout the menstrual cycle. Based on the results of this test, hormone imbalances can be identified and treated with a low fat diet, high in cruciferous veggies and low in xenoestrogens and an herbal formula designed to balance hormones. This often successfully helps women with fibrocystic breast disease.
