For many women, tender breasts during PMS is one of the worst symptoms. That’s because they are very emotionally-giving women, generally in relationships and huggers. The sore breasts during PMS cramps their style and makes it impossible to hug their boyfriend, husband or family members and friends. It’s the only time of the month (PMS) when they get breast pain.
Why do breasts hurt during PMS? What is it about swollen breasts that makes a woman want to cry? It’s the inflammation inside the breasts that make them swollen.
How to Determine Remedies for Sore Breasts During PMS
Thus when you want to know how to get rid of sore breasts from PMS and you’re thinking it through logically, you’d want to ask yourself how to get rid of the inflammation. This inflammation – clearly tied to PMS breast tenderness relief – could have a root cause of any of these:
- Magnesium or vitamin D deficiency, which causes widespread inflammation in the body
- Hormone imbalance, which can go one step deeper to a cause of liver toxicity or backup of toxins in the liver, which further may be tied to colon backup and constipation
- Other illnesses that cause the inflammation in the body, which then increases during the period.
Natural Remedies for PMS Breast Tenderness
To relieve breast pain from PMS, go back to the cause and attack these root causes. Many people don’t do this. Instead, they will grab a painkiller for the pain of the sore breasts. Now think about that for a moment. What exactly did the painkiller do? How did the painkiller help beat the cause?
It didn’t eliminate the magnesium deficiency or vitamin D deficiency. It didn’t rebalance the hormones. It added to the liver toxicity problem. It didn’t address any constipation that was there. (The constipation, by the way causes more inflammation.) And the painkiller didn’t address other illnesses in the body that contribute to inflammation.
With the root causes of PMS breast tenderness in mind, here are five solutions below.
1. Take a 300-400 mg tablet of magnesium daily. This could be magnesium oxide or magnesium citrate. You could also rub magnesium oil into your breasts. It works well to eliminate pain wherever it is rubbed into the body.
2. Get a vitamin D test done to see what your status is. Then take vitamin D to improve your levels and bring them up to normal. Just so you know, the dosage to replenish levels is 10,000 IU vitamin D3 daily for 2 months. It’s not vitamin D2.
3. Do a liver cleanse for one month. This means taking an herbal formula that specifically cleanses the liver. Generally the dosage is 1-2 capsules twice daily. (It’s doable.)
4. Do a colon cleanse for one month. This means taking a colon cleanse herbal formula that specifically cleanses the colon and stimulates it to work as it should. Generally the dosage is 1-2 capsules three times daily – with meals in other words. Depending on how backed up your colon is, you may have to do additional work on your colon. For example, if you only have one bowel movement daily, it should be three times daily if you’re eating three meals a day. You’ll have to take the 1-2 capsules three times daily.
But if you’re only having one bowel movement a week, you could end up needing the 2 capsules three times daily plus a series of 3 colonic hydrotherapy sessions each week for the four weeks. You have too much waste matter inside the abdomen and it’s contributing greatly to the functioning of your internal organs, including your ovaries. It’s causing PMS, no doubt about it.
If this is you, your protocol may be 3 capsules of the colon cleanse formula three times daily, plus the colonics for two months, not one month. You’ll feel a whole lot better in a few short weeks and notice a big difference in all your PMS symptoms, not just breast tenderness.
5. Take a Period Vitamin so you can at least be assured of having the minimal amounts of vitamins and minerals for your body during your cycle during the reproductive years.
This is only taken once a day so it’s easy to do.
You can beat PMS breast tenderness. Get smart about how to do it and give it a try.
