Confirm diagnosis: Primrose oil can be useful for some people with fibrocystic breast tissue. I guess the issue here is to confirm that the problem in your breast is fibrocystic tissue. This is a benign condition although painful. If you are uncertain about the diagnosis then you doctor can prove it with a sonogram or mammogram
