What are the conditions that bilateral breast hyperplasia and breast nodules belong to?

Patient's question:

This situation has persisted for some time. Recently, I've been feeling pain in my chest, a bit of tenderness, and when I touched it, it felt like there were small lumps. Yesterday afternoon, I went to the hospital for an ultrasound, which indicated breast hyperplasia. Please ask: What category does bilateral breast hyperplasia and breast nodules belong to?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'd be happy to help clarify your situation. You likely have benign breast disease, also known as fibrocystic breast disease, which is primarily characterized by fibrosis of the breast stroma. It is mainly related to endocrine disorders of ovarian function, with relatively excessive estrogen levels and increased progesterone excretion. It is more common in women aged 30-50, primarily manifesting as breast tenderness and lumps that fluctuate with the menstrual cycle. In this case, conservative treatment is usually the foundation. You can use a bra to support the breasts and take oral medications such as Xiaoyao Pills and Xiaojindan. Additionally, you may consider taking 5% potassium chloride and vitamin E. Regular follow-up is recommended.
