How big does breast hyperplasia need to be to require surgery instead of being controlled with medication?

Patient's question:

How big does breast hyperplasia need to be for surgery? Can it be suppressed with medication? What should be paid attention to in terms of diet?

Doctor's answer:

How surgery is needed for breast hyperplasia is mainly determined by the nature of the nodule, with size not being the sole indication for surgery. Breast hyperplasia is mostly a benign fibrotic disease of the breast. If there are no clinical diagnostic symptoms, it may not require intervention, but regular follow-up examinations are necessary. For patients with breast hyperplasia, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care training. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during the treatment period and pay close attention to hygiene.
