Causes of lobular breast hyperplasia

Causes of lobular breast hyperplasia

Cystoma is a non-inflammatory disease of the breast, also known as lobular hyperplasia of the breast and chronic cystic breast disease. It is more common in women between 25 and 40 years old. Breast tenderness and lumps in the breast are the main clinical manifestations. Breast lumps and pain increase before menstruation and decrease after menstruation. The lumps are multiple and can be seen in one or both breasts, so let’s learn more about them today so that we can be more confident in preventing them.

Cystic hyperplasia of breast is a disease characterized by cysts formed by highly dilated mammary lobules, ductules and terminal ducts, accompanied by abnormal mammary structure. It is also known as chronic cystic breast disease, cystic desquamative breast hyperplasia, fibrocystic breast disease, etc. Compared with simple breast hyperplasia, this disease is different in that breast hyperplasia coexists with atypical hyperplasia and there is a risk of malignant transformation. It should be considered as a precancerous lesion.

Typical symptoms: painless, single, hard lump in the breast (65%), thickening of the upper quadrant of the breast (61%), breast pain (61%), cystic hyperplasia of the breast (60%), decreased milk secretion (60%), nodules (55%)

1. Lump

Breast lumps are often the main symptom. They can occur in one or both breasts, but are more obvious in the left breast. The lumps can be solitary or multiple, and their shapes vary. They can be a single nodule or multiple nodules. A single nodule is often spherical, with unclear boundaries, can be moved freely, and has a cystic feeling. Multiple nodules often involve both breasts or the entire breast. The nodules vary in size, and the cysts are often restricted in activity. They are of medium hardness and toughness. Larger cysts located near the surface can often be felt as cysts. There are also cord-like distributions along the milk ducts, and the diameters of the nodules or cords are mostly 0.5 to 3 cm.

According to the distribution range of the lumps, they can be divided into diffuse type, that is, the lumps are distributed throughout the breast; or mixed type, that is, there are lumps of several different shapes, such as flakes, nodules, cords, and granules scattered throughout the breast.

2. Breast pain

The breast pain of this disease is mostly not obvious, and is not closely related to the menstrual cycle. Occasionally, there are various manifestations of pain, such as dull pain, stabbing pain, chest and back pain, and upper limb pain. For some patients, the lump becomes larger and harder, and the pain worsens when they are depressed, sad, upset, tired, or in bad weather. The lump becomes softer and smaller after menstruation or when the mood improves. Clinical experience suggests that such changes are mostly benign. If the lump grows rapidly and is hard, it indicates the possibility of malignancy.

3. Nipple discharge

About 5% to 15% of patients may have nipple discharge, which is mostly spontaneous nipple discharge, often straw-yellow serous, brown serous, serous-bloody or bloody discharge. If the discharge is serous-bloody or bloody, it often indicates the presence of intraductal papilloma.

Are girls more relieved now? Every girl has a different physique and the symptoms they show are also different. If you have breast pain during menstruation, you don’t need to worry too much. Women should maintain a regular life and not let themselves get too tired. At the same time, learn to relax and reduce the burden on themselves. This is a healthier lifestyle. I hope the above suggestions can help you.
