What is the reason for severe breast hyperplasia after pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Just got pregnant and my breasts are especially sore, and the hyperplasia of the mammary glands has become severe. Hello, what is the reason for severe hyperplasia of the mammary glands just after getting pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

If you previously had hyperplasia of the mammary glands, after pregnancy, due to the significant decrease in estrogen levels in the body, the local tenderness and irritation symptoms caused by hyperplasia will become more pronounced. In this case, you can consider massage or cold compresses to relieve pain. In the early stages of pregnancy, medication should not be used casually. Additionally, wear loose clothing and avoid pressing on the affected breast while taking a nap. As the breasts continue to grow and develop, the symptoms will gradually improve.
