Need solutins for calcium nodules in breasts

Posted By Arshia (Woodridge, Ill, Usa) on 03/22/2011

Hi, I felt lump in my both breast back in sept 2010 went for mammogram and ultra sound and the dr's told me I have calcium nodules in both breast and they would do a biopsy to make sure they did the biopsy and it came out as fibroadenoma calcification and they said I dont need to do anything it will dissolve by itself, please help with any home remedies or hints its driving me crazy and I still have 3 on each side and very painful when closer to my periods. Should I remove surgically or no? I have no history of cancer in my family and I use to drink lot of coffee but not anymore. Please help with answers.

About 8 years ago I had a really painfull lump in my breast... I was only 21 but I convinced myself I had breast cancer, freaked out and went to the Dr. They were calling it fibrocystic breast disease then, they keep changing the name so who knows what it's called now. Anyway, the Dr. of course gave me no advice on how to help my condition (naturally) or at least not aggravate it... I looked into it myself and this is what I've found.

Increased estrogen levels make it very painful, like when I was PMSing it was the worst. Arobic excercise reduces estrogen levels so start that on a regular basis... 30 min. At least every other day. Alcohol spikes your estrogen levels, I noticed it would flare up if I had drank too much and was hungover (i was 21, what can I say:). No alcohol works great, but, I still have a few drinks here and there (maybe 3 drinks on the weekend) and I'm fine. The major thing for me was to cut out non organic meats and dairy products. Vegatarion is great, but I'm not up for it so I try to stick with organic, free range, no hormone added meat and poultry and organic milk, cheese, all dairy products organic and hormone free. This helped so much! I never even feel the bump or pain anymore, I think it's gone, but then every summer when we go to alot of picnics, bbq's, camping... I end up eating non organic meat and dairy and it flares up again. This is proof to me that this is exactly what was causing the problem.

Also, ACV is a miracle that I feel couldn't hurt, it's good for overall health anyway. I would try all dietary changes that may effect estrogen before you jump into surgery. If you have the surgery and it was an estrogen based condition it'll just reaccur right? Hope this helps.

some have mentioned iodine transdermally for this.

Really the best thing to do is to wait it out... Its usually a month or so. I've been getting this for about 13 years now. I have found drinking a liter of water with a 1/4 tspn of sea salt will help shrink it. I drink it one time every other day.

Transdermal iodine therapy: I tried this recently and I burnt myself! I had a cyst (size of my palm) pop up last month which was really painfull and I wanted to do something to help it along. So, I painted it with iodine.. I admit I went over board with it and ending up burning myself.

Yes, its gone on the inside, but my skin is now having to heal and I'll have an ugly scar. So, if I had to do it over, I would continue to drink the seasalt water and exercise a little more patience. Please be careful!
