Patient's question:
What are the symptoms of breast hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Answer: The symptoms of the disease are primarily characterized by cyclical breast pain. Initially, it presents as a diffuse, dull ache and tenderness, most noticeable in the outer upper quadrant and upper central region of the breast. The pain intensifies before menstruation and subsides or disappears after the menstrual period. In severe cases, persistent pain occurs both before and after menstruation. At times, the pain radiates to the axilla, shoulder blades, upper limbs, and other areas. Patients often report feeling lumps in their breasts, while clinical examination only reveals thickened breast gland tissue. Extremely rarely, simple breast lobular hyperplasia during puberty may resolve spontaneously within about two years. However, most patients require treatment.
