Almost every woman suffers from breast tenderness during menopause. At the same time, this tension triggers severe pain in some affected women. For this reason, many like to fall back on old-known home remedies that have already helped many. Thereby a fast relief is very important for many women. Healing successes are also attributed to alternative remedies.
What helps against breast tenderness?
When using monk’s pepper, improvement sets in only after a few days. There are many home remedies that are used for breast tenderness. Probably the best known home remedy is the so-called monk’s pepper, which is also called chaste mud. This influences the release of dopamine. This normalizes the release of the hormone prolactin in the pituitary gland. This is responsible for milk production and causes breast tenderness. When using monk’s pepper, it is particularly important that it is used regularly. This is because affected women can only notice an improvement after a few days. Quick relief is also promised by quark compresses. These have an analgesic and decongestant effect. This is mainly attributed to the cooling effect. The curd is spread on a cloth to the thickness of a finger. With the curd side this is put on the chest. It is recommended to put a second dry cloth over it and to let the compress stay there for about 30 minutes. The application of lavender, neroli or rose oil has also helped many affected women. A few drops of the respective oil are put on a clean cloth. This cloth is then wrapped in aluminum foil and placed between two hot water bottles for a few minutes. Afterwards, the cloth can be placed on the chest and the active ingredients of the oil will unfold their effect very well. For this, it is particularly important that the cloth continues to be kept warm. A simple blanket or other dry cloths can help here. But also sport, which is specifically for relaxation, has already helped many women with breast tenderness during menopause. Here, mediation and yoga are used above all. But also an autogenic training or progressive muscle relaxation according to Jacobsen are always popular.
Quick help
The home remedies do not have the same effect on every woman. While with some already after the first treatment a clear improvement occurs, other women suffer still after some days under the breast tension with the same application of the house means. Basically, however, an improvement can be noticed very quickly with any home remedy if they are used regularly. For this purpose, one should test different home remedies one after the other to find the ideal remedy for oneself. Thus, a quick remedy can take place and menopause will be more pleasant for the affected women than before.
Alternative remedies
To get rid of the annoying and sometimes very painful breast tenderness again, many affected women resort to treatment with alternative remedies. Here, especially the Schüßler salts are in vogue. The Schüßler salt No. 1 Calcium Fluoratum balances the estrogen deficiency and the progesterone deficiency and usually relieves the breast tenderness after the first treatment. In addition, this Schuessler salt helps against joint pain and against bladder weakness at the same time. Therefore, this preparation is a good companion through menopause. The Schüßler salt No. 3 Ferrum Phosphoricum has also proven itself in a treatment of breast tenderness. This balances the hormonal fluctuations that can trigger breast tenderness. In addition, affected women benefit at the same time from the fact that this salt strengthens concentration and works against constant fatigue. The Schüßler salt No. 7, Magnesium Phosphoricum, is also particularly popular. This also balances hormones and can be used together with the other two remedies. Usually, an additional acupuncture treatment can also relieve the pain caused by a perpetual breast tenderness.
