Patient's question:
Last month, my period was delayed by about ten days. During the delay, I experienced breast tenderness, with the right breast being more painful and slightly larger than the left. Light pressure on the upper part of the right breast caused tenderness, and there was a small lump. After my period arrived, there was no pain or tenderness, and light pressure didn't cause any discomfort. I usually have breast tenderness before my period, but this time it felt different. Could it be breast hyperplasia? What are the symptoms of breast hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Every time before menstruation, the symptoms of breast tenderness and pain reappear. This time, the pain is particularly severe, possibly related to hormone secretion, and it may be due to breast hyperplasia. It is necessary to go to a regular hospital's breast surgery department for a follow-up examination. Under the guidance of a doctor, undergo detailed examinations such as breast ultrasound, confirm the cause, and then decide on the appropriate treatment method. Drink more water and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.
