Which group of people are prone to breast disease?

Women's health experts say that the incidence of breast cancer is increasing year by year. Female friends may feel that breast cancer is far away from them, but it is not. But if you can make full use of the relevant knowledge of women's health care and take good care of your breasts, I believe you can fundamentally prevent the occurrence of breast disease. Next, let’s take a look at which groups of people are prone to breast disease.

Bad mood, prone to breast disease

When I am in the outpatient clinic, I often hear female friends complain, "I've been in a bad mood lately, it's so annoying." At this time, I always tell them that bad mood and breast disease are like distant relatives, and they can become very close if you are not careful. Young urban women face fierce competitive pressure and are in a state of stress for a long time, which leads to emotional instability, thus affecting hormone levels and endocrine conditions, especially long-term depression. Breast diseases, such as breast hyperplasia, breast fibroadenoma, and even breast cancer are not only related to these factors, but also have a high recurrence rate.

Being single is bad for breast health

Statistics show that single women are twice as likely to develop breast cancer as married women. Adverse factors such as being a DINK and giving birth to the first child at over 30 years old can also affect breast health.

First of all, a harmonious sex life can regulate endocrine, stimulate the secretion of progesterone, and increase the protection and repair of the breast. Of course, sex will also stimulate the secretion of estrogen, but it is controlled by progesterone and breast hyperplasia will not occur. In addition, orgasm stimulation can accelerate blood circulation and prevent breast hyperplasia due to poor blood circulation. Having children is also beneficial to the mammary glands. If women insist on breastfeeding after giving birth, they can keep the mammary glands unobstructed. If you rarely breastfeed or never breastfeed, it is easy to cause milk accumulation in the breasts, thereby increasing the risk of breast cancer.

Protect your breasts and eat less high-fat foods

Because a high-fat diet can change the body's endocrine environment and enhance or prolong the stimulation of estrogen on breast epithelial cells, it increases the risk of breast disease. In addition, a high-fat diet can easily lead to obesity, which is closely related to breast cancer. The incidence of cancers such as breast cancer in obese people is 3.45 times higher than that in non-obese people. When there is too much fat accumulation, the production of estrogen increases. The excess estrogen is stored in the adipose tissue after being lipified and is continuously released into the blood, which will stimulate the breast tissue and, over time, can easily cause breast disease.

Perform regular breast self-examination

Female friends should usually sit up straight, with their chest up, head up, abdomen in, and knees straight; choose a bra that is soft and of appropriate size according to the condition of their breasts; pay attention to breast cleanliness, wash the breasts frequently, especially the nipple and areola; perform regular breast self-examinations, which should be done once a month, preferably at the same time of each month, preferably 5 to 7 days after menstruation, when the effect of estrogen on the breast is minimal and the breast is in a relatively static state, making breast lesions or abnormalities easy to detect.

This is just a brief introduction to the relevant knowledge about breast cancer today. If you want to learn more about breast cancer, it is recommended that you go to the hospital and ask a doctor. I believe you will get a satisfactory answer from the doctor. At the same time, female friends, please pay attention to the knowledge about women's health so that you can live a healthy life.
