After breast hyperplasia occurs, patients need to pay attention to their diet. They should avoid consuming high-fat, greasy, spicy, and high-calorie stimulating foods as much as possible. It is appropriate to eat more high-fiber and coarse grain foods. Moreover, the patient's diet should include high-protein, high-vitamin, and nutritionally rich foods. Eat more vegetables and fruits and arrange meals reasonably, avoiding spicy, stimulating, and greasy foods. It is also important to maintain a relaxed mood.

Breast hyperplasia is related to what?

Breast hyperplasia is currently believed to be related to endocrine disorder, leading to increased levels of estrogen, as well as external living and working conditions, interpersonal relationships, and various other stresses. These factors can cause breast hyperplasia. During the menstrual cycle, the breast is affected by changes in endocrine levels, experiencing cyclical changes. Hormonal imbalances, characterized by high levels of estrogen and reduced secretion of progesterone, can lead to incomplete recovery after breast hyperplasia, thereby causing the condition. Mainly, controlling emotions is essential. The primary symptoms are cyclical swelling and pain in the breasts.

Unilateral breast hyperplasia symptoms

The symptoms of unilateral breast hyperplasia manifest as cyclical swelling and pain in the breast, often occurring or worsening before menstruation and subsiding or disappearing after menstruation. Mild cases may not receive much attention from the patient, but severe cases can affect work and daily life. However, patients generally do not exhibit obvious cyclical changes. Some may experience swelling and pain in one or both breasts, similar to being pricked by needles, and this pain can extend to the shoulder, upper limbs, and chest-back area. A few patients may have nipple discharge, with the discharge being yellow-green, brown, or bloody. During physical examination, nodular lumps of varying sizes, which are firm but not hard, can sometimes be felt in one or both breasts. These lumps, which move slightly upon touch, have indistinct boundaries with the surrounding breast tissue but are not adherent to the skin or chest muscles. Sometimes the condition presents as an area of indistinct thickening.

Methods for Mammary Gland Hyperplasia

The main clinical manifestation of breast hyperplasia is usually premenstrual breast pain, and palpation of the breasts may reveal hyperplasia. Generally speaking, breast hyperplasia is not a serious issue, but there is a possibility of cancerous changes in a small number of patients. Typically, the clinical treatment of breast hyperplasia should not primarily focus on pain relief. The main treatment method is to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, thereby alleviating pain and symptoms. Patients with breast hyperplasia should maintain a positive mood and emotions, and avoid getting upset or angry in daily life.

What should I do about hyperplastic nodules in the breast?

Breast nodules are a symptom commonly associated with breast hyperplasia and neoplastic breast diseases. In treatment, it is crucial to first make an accurate diagnosis through breast ultrasound and mammography. If some nodules are highly likely to be benign, regular follow-up observation may be considered. If a biopsy is needed for some breast nodules to determine their pathological nature, the treatment plan can be decided based on the pathology results. If diagnosed as malignant tumors, a personalized comprehensive treatment plan should be developed in collaboration with multiple disciplines based on the patient's condition, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, endocrine therapy, and molecular targeted therapy, among others.

Breast hyperplasia

Breast hyperplasia is neither a tumor nor an inflammation; it is currently believed to be mainly related to endocrine disorders, leading to increased levels of estrogen. Factors such as the external environment in which people live, work and living conditions, interpersonal relationships, and other various stresses can cause changes in a person’s internal environment. These changes can affect the function of the endocrine system, leading to the abnormal secretion of one or several hormones, resulting in hormonal imbalances that cause breast hyperplasia.
