Patient's question:
A friend who studies medicine said her classmates might have breast hyperplasia, suggesting she go to the hospital for a check-up. She hasn't had the time to do so and wants to understand what the symptoms of bilateral breast hyperplasia are.Doctor's answer:
Mild breast hyperplasia generally doesn't have obvious symptoms, but it may occasionally cause breast tenderness. Most breast hyperplasia is caused by hormonal imbalance due to endocrine dysfunction, leading to excessive fibrosis of breast tissue and incomplete regeneration. Over time, the fibrotic breast tissue cannot fully fade away.Your classmate's condition, even if it is breast hyperplasia, is not severe, so there's no need to worry. You can visit the breast department at the hospital for a breast ultrasound. If it is confirmed to be breast hyperplasia, you can take Chinese medicine to regulate it, such as herbs that promote liver health, improve blood circulation, reduce blood stasis, and soften hard lumps. It is also recommended to have regular follow-up examinations and maintain a positive mood.
