Patient's question:
At first, I thought having breast hyperplasia wasn't a serious illness and kept putting off going to the hospital. Later, I heard from my younger sister that a friend of hers had recently passed away from breast cancer, and she was only in her 20s. At that moment, I felt a chill run through my heart. How are breast hyperplasia and multiple fibroids treated?Doctor's answer:
What you mentioned, breast hyperplasia and fibroadenoma, are two different conditions. Although both are related to endocrine levels in the body and are benign inflammatory conditions, their symptoms and physical examination findings are significantly different. Both breast hyperplasia and fibroadenomas have the potential to become malignant. Breast hyperplasia can be treated with medication, while fibroadenomas are usually surgically removed. Since you have both conditions, it is recommended to undergo surgical treatment.
