What should women do if their breast hyperplasia is severe?

Women's physical health is very important because women's physiological structure is different from men's and is more suitable for reproductive functions. For example, breasts are the food processing factory for women to feed their offspring. When secreting milk, the breasts will be significantly larger than usual. The pathological enlargement of some breasts has aroused women's vigilance. This is a typical phenomenon of breast hyperplasia, which can cause women to experience symptoms such as breast pain, inflammation and fever. Therefore, this situation must be dealt with in a timely manner. Let’s take a look at what to do if a woman’s breast hyperplasia is severe.

1. Psychotherapy:

The occurrence of breast hyperplasia is often related to fatigue, irregular life, mental stress and excessive pressure. The first step in treating breast hyperplasia is to relieve stress from life and work, eliminate worries, feel happy and have a peaceful mind, and the symptoms can be relieved.

2. Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine:

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that breast hyperplasia begins with liver depression, and then blood stasis and phlegm coagulate into lumps. The treatment should be to soothe the liver and regulate qi, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, soften and disperse nodules. Bupleurum, white peony, Cyperus rotundus, citrus leaf, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and earthworms are commonly used medicines in traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions. Some patients can also take patent Chinese medicines, such as: Sanjieling, Rukuaixiao, Runing, Rukangpian, Xiaoyaosan or Danzhi Xiaoyaosan (jiawei Xiaoyaosan), etc. On the premise of excluding breast malignancy, external treatments of traditional Chinese medicine can also be tried, such as: Chinese medicine bras, acupuncture, massage, etc.

3. Western medicine treatment:

Hormone drugs, iodine preparations and tamoxifen can be used to relieve pain, but they are not the first choice because of certain side effects. Vitamins A, B6, and E also have the function of regulating sex hormones and can be used as auxiliary medications for breast hyperplasia.

4. Surgical treatment:

Fibrocystic breast disease is caused by endocrine metabolic imbalance and has no surgical indications. In clinical practice, if individual breast nodules are difficult to distinguish from breast cancer, surgical resection can be used and the diagnosis can be confirmed by pathological examination.
