Hello Dear user .
Thank you for using HCM for your health problems.
Can you tell me please how old are you?
Did you have rregullar periods?(I don’t know if you are female or male)
Usually fibroidenosis or brest fibroid also known as fibrocystic breast disease ,are bening (non-cancerous).
Its posibel that your fibroidesis usually are moveable and you feel breast pain because may be is the rubbery nodels that cause painfull swelling near the breast surface.
You must to do :
•     Mammography which is the method for the detection of breast fibroids .
•     Ultrasound examination is quite helpful in this case.
•     Also my advise is to do biopsy and aspiration of the breast (its an accurate diagnosis and to differentiate between breast fibroid and breast cancer
About your questations if :Can treatment for breast fibroid and hypothyroidism go together?Are some hormons that influence the development of the berast fibroids:Thyroid hormone(hypothyroidism)Prolactina, Insulina, Growth factor and very important :
•     Are the monthy changes in level of estrogen and progesterone .
My advise in your case is you must to check fibroidenoms by mammogrfaphy, ultrasound and FNA , at second to see the hormone level :
•     Tsh , Ft4 , Ft3
•      progesterone ,
•      prolactin,
•      insulin ,
•      Estrogen .
I suggest to contact your doctor gynecologist and endocronologis & oncolog for more advises.
If you have any further queries, please feel free to ask. I would be happy to help.

Best regards
