What Causes Painful Lump In Breast After Taking Garcinia Cambogia?

I am 50 years old, and started taking garcinia cambogia about 1 month ago. Four days ago my breasts were very sore when I took off my bra for bed. The next day I noticed a large lump on the left, and on Sunday I noticed a large lump on the right. I haven t taken any garcinia cambogia for 2 days now, and notice the lumps are slightly smaller. I hate not being able to continue with the weight loss (16 pounds so far) and was wondering if there were any other supplements I could take to alleviate the breast cysts?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The garcinia is not normally associated with lesions in the breasts though everyone reacts different to medication.

There are no known supplements that might help with the cysts but if they are very painful then the use of anti inflammatory pain killer may help.

Eg ibuprofen, cataflam or naproxen

If you did not have a recent mammogram,then you may want to do this to make sure that there are no other problems present.

I hope this helps
