I am a 29 year old female and have been told I have fibrocystic disease of the breast. Is there any thing I can do to make it go away?


Fibrocystic disease is also common in many women in between the 3-4 decade of life. The breast usually feels lumpy and uneven. Physicians often refer to fibrocystic disease as glandular disease. Fibrocystic disease is found in more 50% of women at some point in their lives. Today, it is believed that fibrocystic disease is not a disease at all, just a variation of normal growth.  Women who have fibrocystic disease do complain of pain or discomfort in the breast. However, the disorder is not life threatening and disappears after menopause. Simple homemade measures like wearing a support bra and avoiding caffeine beverages is all that is required.
