Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing breast tenderness and pain. After a thorough examination at the hospital, they said it's due to mammary hyperplasia. I'd like to consult about what treatments are available for mammary hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Hyperplasia of the breast has a physiological scope, which can significantly improve or completely eliminate symptoms during marriage, postpartum, and breastfeeding. For painful lumps on one or both sides of the breast that occur with the menstrual cycle, if long-term drug treatment is ineffective, tissue pathology examination can be performed at the prominent location of the lump. If there is no atypical hyperplasia, drug treatment can be observed. Since the pathogenesis of cystic hyperplasia of the breast shares a common origin with the occurrence of breast cancer, anti-estrogen drugs are used for treatment. Hyperplasia patients must pay attention to a regular lifestyle and avoid overworking. Excessive estrogen excretion can force women to develop hyperplasia, so women with hyperplasia should avoid eating estrogen-rich foods, such as honey.
