Abstract

Cyclical Mastalgia is one of the most common complaints, which can resolve with a hormonal event like pregnancy or menopause. Modern science has been evolving with many formulations as an effective cure to decrease the severity of premenstrual symptoms. However, some of the patients prefer traditional ayurvedic treatment since it has lesser adverse effects compared to modern medicine. Hence, this Vishaladi lepa in treatment of cyclical mastalgia should be studied in deapth. A paste made from various drugs applied externally is called Lepa.
