Breast hyperplasia is closely related to the levels of estrogen in the body, as well as to being angry, staying up late, and eating spicy food. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid getting angry, staying up late, and eating spicy food regularly. For mild cases without symptoms, there is no need to address it if it does not affect daily life or work. If significant pain occurs, we can administer traditional Chinese medicine treatments, which can help soothe the liver and regulate qi, and harmonize the thoroughfare and conception vessels. Additionally, treatment can be supplemented with Vitamin A and Vitamin E. If these are not effective, endocrinological treatments specific to the symptoms may be used. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a physician based on the specific circumstances.)

How to treat breast hyperplasia?

One can also use traditional Chinese medicine orally to regulate the condition, which generally includes herbs that soothe the liver and relieve depression, soften lumps and disperse nodules, or strengthen the spleen.

Is breast hyperplasia scary?

Breast hyperplasia is a common breast disease, mostly seen in women aged 25 to 50. Clinical examinations show that 50% of women have cystic hyperplastic changes in the breast. In addition to the benign proliferation of breast fibrous tissue and epithelium accompanied by cysts, there is also the formation of fibroadenomas. The development into breast cancer is absolutely low risk, or generally does not undergo malignant transformation. Therefore, it is referred to as cystic breast hyperplasia or poor breast structure. Generally, the treatment is mainly focused on emotional aspects, and if the pain intensifies, treatment with traditional Chinese medicine can be utilized.

Is hyperplasia of the mammary glands serious?

Overall, breast hyperplasia is a benign disease and not severe, so there is no need for excessive anxiety. However, it should definitely not be taken lightly. Studies have found that about 2% to 3% of cases with breast hyperplasia may develop into cancer, and the rate of malignant transformation in cystic breast hyperplasia is 3 to 5 times higher than in other women. If you do not control factors that cause breast hyperplasia, such as endocrine disorders, high-fat diets, smoking, drinking, hypertension, and diabetes, then the breast ducts and epithelia being chronically stimulated by these factors could potentially become cancerous. The progression from breast hyperplasia to breast cancer is a lengthy process, undergoing four stages: hyperplasia → atypical hyperplasia (precancerous) → in situ carcinoma → invasive carcinoma. Therefore, breast hyperplasia should be taken very seriously, with efforts made for early examination, early detection, and early treatment. This is especially important for those with a family history of breast cancer or who belong to families with a high incidence of cancer.

What fruits to eat for mammary gland hyperplasia?

The development of mammary gland hyperplasia is closely related to the state of endocrine. If the hormone levels in the body are disordered, it can induce the occurrence of mammary gland hyperplasia. Fruits have little impact on mammary gland hyperplasia, and there are no effective fruits that can control and treat this condition. Of course, eating more fruits and vegetables regularly to supplement various vitamins and trace elements can help alleviate mammary gland hyperplasia. Strictly speaking, patients with mammary gland hyperplasia can eat all seasonal fruits, including watermelon, oranges, kiwis, bananas, pineapples, etc., because the main content or components of fruits are cellulose and fructose. Mammary gland hyperplasia is mainly caused by various factors leading to hormonal imbalance in the body, resulting in clinical syndromes. In terms of diet, it is generally necessary to avoid foods that are too greasy, spicy, and stimulating. The content of fruits, mainly cellulose, vitamins, and fructose, does not contain any spicy or stimulating ingredients, nor does it contain fats, so eating fruits will not aggravate mammary gland hyperplasia. All kinds of seasonal fruits are safe to eat and do not cause any aggravation or inducement of mammary gland hyperplasia. Therefore, almost all seasonal fruits, including watermelon, bananas, pineapples, kiwis, apples, and oranges can be eaten. In terms of diet, it is preferable to adhere to a light diet, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, eat less greasy and pickled foods, consume more fruits and vegetables, engage in appropriate exercise, avoid excessive obesity, and abstain from smoking and alcohol to reduce risk factors and control the occurrence of mammary gland hyperplasia.
