Patient's question:
After giving birth, my body has been doing well, and I haven't experienced any postpartum health issues. However, since giving birth, I've been experiencing breast tenderness before my first period, along with aching in my lower abdomen and waist. The symptoms go away after my period ends. Could you please explain what causes breast tenderness before menstruation?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned may be a manifestation of breast hyperplasia. The discomfort in the lower abdomen and lumbosacral area suggests the possibility of gynecological inflammation. Therefore, it is recommended that you visit a hospital for examination. The main tests should include color Doppler ultrasound of the breasts and lower abdomen. You can also undergo a gynecological examination to check for cervical inflammation and vaginal inflammation. If breast hyperplasia is confirmed, you can take Guizhi Fuling capsules or Ruan'an tablets orally for a period of time.
