Do bras cause fibrocystic disease?
Fibrocystic breast disease is a sign of too much estrogenic effect and toxin buildup in the breasts. If you have lumpy, bumpy tender breasts or have had breast biopsies, go bra free or wear a less restrictive bra. Breast cysts and fibrotic changes occur because of the accumulation of estrogen and toxins in your breasts. Some of these cysts contain a high concentration of potassium (not sodium).

You cannot tell if you have these bad cysts by touch or ultrasound or mammograms or routine lab tests. Excess estrogen contributes to breast cancer.
