Doctor's answer:
Hello: Based on the situation you described, your condition is likely caused by long-term and excessive use of birth control pills, leading to these symptoms. It is recommended that you actively visit a hospital to undergo a breast ultrasound or X-ray examination to check the situation. Currently, your condition may be likely to have the possibility of breast hyperplasia. In fact, in general, any form of contraception can cause certain damage to the patient. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. For those using contraception, attention should be paid to self-care, such as keeping warm and avoiding contact with cold water.
