Patient's question:
When I was in middle school, I started experiencing irregular periods. After getting married, it improved for about two years, but after giving birth, the irregular periods returned, accompanied by breast tenderness and lumps in the breast. I have been taking traditional Chinese medicine for several years, but it hasn't helped much. I want to know how to treat breast hyperplasia and irregular periods.Doctor's answer:
Hyperplasia of the breast and menstrual disorders are directly related to endocrine hormone level imbalance. Due to hyperplasia of the breast, general hormone drugs should be used cautiously, as they may potentially alleviate the symptoms of breast hyperplasia. Some traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can be chosen for conditioning, which generally has fewer side effects. However, the effectiveness of TCM is relatively slower, and the treatment course is longer. Daily diet should also be comprehensive and diverse to prevent picky eating and meat deficiency.
