Hi Mam,
I understand your query and concern.
I have gone through your earlier questions as well.

This is more common in young women.
The breast pain is due to congestion every month,relieves after the periods.
Evening primrose oil has excellent analgesic properties,very effective in relieving the breast engorgement and pain.
