Homeopathy is a completely different system of alternative health that is unlike every other type of natural healing.

Natural homeopathic treatment involves using substances in minute concentrations that work on an energetic level to eliminate the symptoms.

It’s like giving a very minute amount of a ‘poison’ that causes a symptom to the body to make the body deal with it, and in the process, the symptom resolves.

Women who have fibrocystic breast are more prone to get breast tenderness during their menstrual cycle.

This means they also have breast tenderness before their period as well. Homeopathic remedies for sore breasts vary according to the other symptoms that are occurring at the same time.

For example, the homeopathic remedy called Folliculinum would be called for when someone has painful, tender breasts that are also swollen due to too much estrogen.

If the breasts are swollen and tender and feel heavy or even hard, there are cramps during the menstrual cycle and the blood flow is heavy, Folliculinum would be the absolute wrong homeopathic remedy. Instead, Phytolacca would be the correct one.

If the breast tenderness is due to small hard lumps and the woman also has uterine fibroids, hemorrhoids, prolapsed organs and varicose veins, then the correct homeopathic remedy for sore swollen breasts would be Calcarea fluorica.

But if the uterine fibroids are accompanied by the need to lose weight or the woman gains weight fast, has periods that are heavy, and the tender painful breasts occurs before the period, the correct homeopathic remedy is Calcarea carbonica.

Lastly, if the breasts are small, lumpy and flat and the woman also has thyroid imbalances, the correct homeopathic remedy is Iodum.

You can see here that with homeopathy, knowing how to treat breast tenderness at home is going to take a significant amount of study, and your best bet if you really want to use homeopathic remedies is to schedule a consultation with a homeopathic physician.

The vast difference in knowledge of a practitioner who took an entire four year program in this type of medicine is going to make a difference from what you read on the internet. Your period will come and go before you really understand this science.

Breast tenderness during PMS is best approached by the bottom line – what vitamins and minerals are needed (and what herbs) to eliminate the vitamin and mineral deficiencies that cause the breast tenderness in the first place.

Why try to relieve the problem any other way?
