Most women will experience symptoms of breast pain. Generally, women do not care much about their breast pain when it is not serious. They will go to the hospital for treatment only when the pain is unbearable. However, serious breast diseases are often diagnosed at this time. It is difficult to say what causes breast pain in women, because many reasons can cause breast pain. Here are some reasons that cause breast pain in women. Causes of Breast Pain1. Insufficient breast development, forming nodules Many women experience breast pain, which is related to their hormone levels. Insufficient breast development, medically known as incomplete involution, often causes breast pain. The process of changes in hormone levels caused by women's menstruation is like the ebb and flow of the tide. After the tide recedes, mud and sand will be left behind. These "mud and sand" that are not left behind when the tide recedes are equivalent to the epithelial cells that are constantly shed and renewed in the breast. They remain in the mammary ducts and cause incomplete degeneration. Many women will feel many nodules in their breasts. Whether they are lump-shaped, sand-shaped, nodular-shaped, strip-shaped, or plaque-shaped, they are all normal. Before pregnancy, the mammary ducts are blocked by accumulated epithelial cells, forming hard nodules. However, after pregnancy, due to the influence of estrogen and progesterone, the breasts are fully developed and the nodules disappear without treatment. 2. Third degree pain requires medical attention as soon as possible According to experts, breast pain is divided into three degrees. First degree is pain felt when touched with the hand, second degree is pain felt when moving, and third degree is pain at rest, which means pain felt even when lying in bed. First-degree pain does not require treatment, second-degree pain can be solved by taking medicine, and third-degree pain is also called severe pain, so you can go to the doctor. 3. Breast hardness has nothing to do with disease In addition to breast pain, the hardness of the breasts can also be graded: one degree is as soft as the lips, two degrees is moderately soft and hard like the nose, and three degrees is as hard as the forehead. But whether it is soft or hard, it does not indicate any disease. If you feel a "swelling" in your breast and it is symmetrical on both sides, then you can consider it as ordinary hyperplasia. If the "swelling" changes before and after menstruation, then there is no need to worry about cancer. 4. Women over 35 should have regular checkups Regarding the problem of breast pain in women, experts recommend that women over 35 years old need to undergo regular breast screening; for women under 35 years old, if the breast pain is severe enough to affect their daily life and they feel a "swelling", then they need to go to the hospital for medical treatment. If a female friend experiences periodic breast pain, it may not be a symptom of disease. However, for safety reasons, it is best to go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis to avoid delaying the treatment. |
