Patient's question:
A colleague said her friend recently discovered through a thorough examination that she has hyperplasia of the breast glands. She mentioned that previously, she only felt some tenderness in her breasts but thought it was just a stomach issue and didn't pay too much attention. Later, after a careful check, she found out it was hyperplasia of the breast glands. She wants to ask the doctor what precautions to take for hyperplasia of the breast glands.Doctor's answer:
Hormonal hyperplasia of the breast is a common benign breast disease in women. The typical symptom is cyclical breast pain, which is more pronounced before menstruation and subsides after the menstrual period, completely recovering. However, there are also cases with atypical pain symptoms. It is often related to fluctuations in the body's hormone levels. Since your pain is not significant, it indicates that the hyperplasia is not severe. First, it is important to adjust your emotions, avoid excessive tension, and maintain a positive mental state. Do not put too much pressure on work or overexert yourself. After adjusting for a period of time, the symptoms generally tend to decrease. At the same time, you can take Xiao Yao Wan orally for supplementary treatment. Pay attention to self-examination of the breasts regularly, and have a breast ultrasound checkup every six months to a year.
