Identify the cause of your pain
Breast pain can arise from breast tissue, muscles, ribs, or hormonal changes. Our assessment pinpoints the source – providing answers and reassurance.
Breast pain (mastalgia) is one of the most common breast complaints – affecting up to 70% of women at some point in their lives. While it is rarely a sign of cancer, breast pain can be distressing and impact daily life. At Amytri Diagnostics, we offer a comprehensive breast pain assessment program that combines clinical evaluation, imaging, and personalised management to identify the cause of your pain and provide effective relief.
Breast pain can be classified as cyclical (related to hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle) or non‑cyclical (unrelated to menstrual cycle). It can originate from breast tissue, chest wall muscles, or even the ribs. Our approach involves a detailed history, clinical examination, targeted imaging (ultrasound, mammography), and, if needed, further investigations to rule out underlying pathology such as cysts, infections (mastitis), or tumours.
At Amytri, our experienced team of gynaecologists and radiologists work together to provide a compassionate, comprehensive assessment. We understand that breast pain can be worrying – and we are here to provide answers, reassurance, and a clear path forward.
Breast pain is common, but it can be a sign of conditions that need attention. A systematic evaluation identifies the cause, relieves anxiety, and guides effective treatment.
Breast pain can arise from breast tissue, muscles, ribs, or hormonal changes. Our assessment pinpoints the source – providing answers and reassurance.
While most breast pain is benign, it's essential to exclude cysts, infections (mastitis), or tumours. Early detection ensures timely management.
Based on the diagnosis, we offer tailored treatments – lifestyle changes, medication, or hormone therapy – to reduce your pain and improve your quality of life.
We use a multi‑modality approach to evaluate your breast pain accurately and provide effective, personalised care.
A detailed history and thorough physical examination by a gynaecologist or breast specialist – localising the pain, identifying triggers, and assessing for associated lumps or skin changes.
High‑resolution ultrasound evaluates the breast tissue for cysts, masses, or inflammatory changes – often the first imaging test for women under 40 with breast pain.
For women over 40 or with suspicious clinical findings, mammography complements ultrasound – detecting microcalcifications and other signs of pathology.
If cyclical pain is suspected, we may evaluate hormonal levels (FSH, LH, Estradiol, Progesterone, Thyroid) – helping identify imbalances that contribute to pain.
If infection is suspected (mastitis), we perform appropriate tests (CBC, CRP, culture) to guide antibiotic therapy.
Based on the diagnosis, we provide a tailored plan – including lifestyle advice (supportive bras, dietary changes), medication (analgesics, hormone therapy), and follow‑up monitoring.
Call us, WhatsApp, or visit our centre to schedule your assessment. We will ask about your pain pattern, menstrual cycle, and any associated symptoms.
You will have a clinical breast examination followed by imaging – ultrasound (and mammography if indicated). The imaging is tailored to your age and clinical findings.
Our specialist will review your results and explain the findings – whether it's cyclical pain, a cyst, a fibroadenoma, or an infection – in clear, understandable language.
You will receive a tailored plan – including lifestyle modifications, medication, and follow‑up – to reduce your pain and improve your comfort.
Any persistent or concerning breast pain should be evaluated – to find the cause and provide relief.
If your breast pain is ongoing, severe, or interfering with daily activities, it needs evaluation to determine the cause and find relief.
Pain that is localised to a specific area may indicate a cyst, fibroadenoma, or other focal pathology – prompt evaluation is important.
If breast pain is accompanied by a lump, redness, warmth, or nipple changes, urgent evaluation is essential to rule out infection or malignancy.
If your pain is related to your menstrual cycle and is severe enough to affect your daily life, we can help with hormonal and lifestyle interventions.
If you have had breast surgery or trauma, new pain may indicate complications – evaluation ensures appropriate management.
If you are worried about your breast pain, professional evaluation provides peace of mind – and if something is wrong, early action saves lives.

Breast pain can be worrying – having your partner or a family member with you provides comfort and support during the evaluation.
We welcome partners during consultations. They can ask questions, help remember the doctor's advice, and support you through any treatment plan.
Breast pain can have many causes – hormonal changes (cyclical), cysts, fibroadenomas, infections (mastitis), musculoskeletal issues, or rarely breast cancer. A thorough evaluation identifies the specific cause.
You should see a doctor if the pain is persistent, severe, localised to one spot, accompanied by a lump, skin changes, nipple discharge, or if you are concerned. Early evaluation provides peace of mind.
Most breast pain is NOT cancer. However, any persistent pain should be evaluated to rule out malignancy. Our assessment ensures you get the right diagnosis.
Evaluation includes clinical examination, breast ultrasound (and mammography if indicated), and sometimes hormonal tests. If infection or other causes are suspected, additional tests may be done.
Yes – treatment depends on the cause. Options include supportive bras, dietary changes, anti‑inflammatory medications, hormone therapy, or antibiotics for infection. We provide a personalised plan.
A referral is recommended but not required. You can book directly for a breast pain assessment. We will share results with your regular physician for continuity of care.
