What are the symptoms of cystic breast hyperplasia in women

Cystic breast hyperplasia is a relatively common gynecological disease, also generally known as breast hyperplasia. When such a disease occurs, women must pay attention to it to avoid the possibility of malignant transformation. It will show certain symptoms, such as breast pain and lumps inside the breast. It will also cause endocrine disorders, leading to menstrual disorders, and even cause patients to have symptoms such as irritability and irritability.

(1) Breast pain:

Common symptoms include unilateral or bilateral breast tenderness or tenderness. The course of the disease varies from 2 months to several years. Most patients have the characteristic of cyclical pain, which occurs or worsens before menstruation and eases or disappears after menstruation. It must be noted that although the periodicity of mastalgia is a typical manifestation of this disease, the absence of this feature does not negate the existence of the disease.

(2) Breast lumps:

It is often multiple, unilateral or bilateral, and more common in the upper quadrant; and the size and texture often change cyclically with menstruation. The lumps increase in size and become harder before menstruation, and decrease in size and become tough but not hard after menstruation. During palpation, the mass can be felt to have a nodular structure, of varying sizes, with unclear boundaries from surrounding tissues, often tender, with no adhesion to the skin and deep tissues, and can be pushed. The axillary lymph nodes are not enlarged.

In addition, the disease may also last a long time, develop slowly, and sometimes cause nipple discharge. The nodules of varying sizes in the breast are essentially some large and small milk ducts that are cystically dilated. Nipple discharge comes from these cysts and is yellow-green, brown or bloody, and occasionally colorless serous.

(3) Menstrual disorders:

Patients with this disease may also experience irregular menstruation, scanty or light-colored menstruation, and may be accompanied by dysmenorrhea.

(4) Emotional changes:

Patients often feel depressed or irritable, which worsens when they are angry, stressed or tired.
