Essential Oils to Avoid for Breast Health
The flowing is a list of essential oils that potentially increased estrogen, and the effects of estrogen on the breasts. Remember that many of us women are actually progesterone deficient, so when we use oils that mimic estrogen within the body this can increase lymphatic congestions, hormonal inflammation and vascularity’s within the breasts:
- Chamomile
- Evening Primrose Oil
- Peppermint
- Thyme
- Lavender
- Rose
- Clary Sage
- Basil
- Rosemary
- Aniseed
- Oregano
- Sage
- Cinnamon
- Coriander
- Fennel
- Geranium
- Tea Tree
- Cypress
For hormonally balanced women, using these oils once in a while will be safe. As a general rule coconut oil is sufficient for massage and moisturising the breasts.
