Hi,

In case your complaints are period related(before periods, it is due hormonal status at the time. Fomentation giving support and pain medicines would help. Few patients need cyclical hormones to correct menstrual hormonal pattern. If it's not related to periods, you need physical examination to note any inflammation or cyst in breast tissue. This can be treated with cause specific drugs. Please consult a gynecologist.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
