What Chinese medicine is used for breast cysts

The treatment of breast cysts should be mainly based on the guidance of a doctor, and Chinese medicine conditioning can be used as an auxiliary means.

Breast cysts are a common benign breast disease, usually related to an imbalance of hormone levels in the body, especially high estrogen levels, which may be the key factor. Its formation mechanism is similar to that of a balloon - the alveoli or ducts in the breast lobules expand and are filled with fluid, gradually forming cysts, which often manifest as breast pain or a lump.

Traditional Chinese medicine for breast cysts is usually selected based on individual constitution and dialectical treatment. Commonly used traditional Chinese medicines include Bupleurum, Angelica, Oyster, Dandelion, Prunella Vulgaris, etc. Among them, Prunella Vulgaris and Dandelion are mainly used to clear away heat and detoxify, reduce swelling and disperse nodules, and are mostly used to improve the symptoms of cysts accompanied by pain; Bupleurum and Angelica are good at soothing the liver and relieving depression, and harmonizing qi and blood, and are suitable for people with high stress and menstrual disorders; Oyster has the effect of softening and dispersing nodules, which helps to reduce the size of cysts. However, these medicinal materials need to be evaluated by professional doctors and used in reasonable combinations and dosages, and should not be used indiscriminately.

In daily life, you can try to reduce high-fat and high-sugar diets, have a regular work and rest schedule, and maintain a stable weight. If the symptoms are obvious or the cyst is large, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for further examination to rule out the possibility of malignant lesions and choose an appropriate treatment plan.
