Patient's question:
Doctor, I have been experiencing breast tenderness and pain recently, which affects both sides but is more severe on one side. The pain becomes more pronounced before my period and gradually decreases and subsides after the period. The pain reappears before the next period. My entire breast has a diffuse sense of nodules and is accompanied by tenderness. Is this condition breast hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, this does not rule out the possibility of mastopathy. You can go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination. Based on the detailed examination results, symptomatic treatment can then be administered. Generally, mild breast pain can occur before and after menstruation. This may be related to factors such as hormonal secretion levels in the body, liver qi stagnation, or poor blood and qi circulation. You can also consult a local traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for syndrome differentiation and treatment using Chinese herbal medicine for regulation.
