Alcohol concern: The concern is with your alcohol use and secondarily with your breasts. Excessive and expansive alcohol use is a known risk factor for breast cancer thought to be related to increased estrogen production. Once the period comes the estrogen levels fall relieving the pressure of breast fluid accumulation. This condition should alert you to consider a change in your "lifestyle" and "consumption".
