How to treat breast hyperplasia?

For breast hyperplasia, oral medication can be taken, such as some traditional Chinese medicine formulations that also have effects like activating blood circulation to remove blood stasis, softening lumps, and dispersing nodules, such as Ruhe Sanjie tablets. One can also use traditional Chinese medicine orally to regulate the condition, which generally includes herbs that soothe the liver and relieve depression, soften lumps and disperse nodules, or strengthen the spleen. Moreover, for breast hyperplasia, it is recommended to maintain a good mood and eat fewer soy products, as there is a certain relationship between breast hyperplasia and estrogen, and soy products may contain estrogen, such as soybeans. It is also crucial to maintain a positive mindset. Breast hyperplasia, in many cases, might not require treatment; it is suggested to have a follow-up every 3 to 6 months. If accompanied by severe breast pain, oral medication can be taken for adjustment. (Please use medication under the guidance of a doctor)

What should I do about hyperplastic nodules in the breast?

Breast nodules are a symptom commonly associated with breast hyperplasia and neoplastic breast diseases. In treatment, it is crucial to first make an accurate diagnosis through breast ultrasound and mammography. If some nodules are highly likely to be benign, regular follow-up observation may be considered. If a biopsy is needed for some breast nodules to determine their pathological nature, the treatment plan can be decided based on the pathology results. If diagnosed as malignant tumors, a personalized comprehensive treatment plan should be developed in collaboration with multiple disciplines based on the patient's condition, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, endocrine therapy, and molecular targeted therapy, among others.

Is category II breast hyperplasia serious?

Category II breast hyperplasia is not serious; it is simply a type of breast hyperplasia. Breast hyperplasia is mainly related to the estrogen levels in the body. The main treatments should focus on soothing the liver and regulating qi, promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis, regulating mood, and adjusting endocrine functions. Some traditional Chinese medicines that soothe the liver, regulate qi, and promote blood circulation to remove blood stasis can also be used to manage these symptoms. There is no psychological burden associated with this, and normal treatment is sufficient.

How to treat nodular hyperplasia of the breast?

According to different pathological types, clinically, there are simple hyperplasia of the breast and cystic hyperplasia of the breast, and the treatment methods are different. For simple breast hyperplasia: If the patient has no symptoms such as pain, medication treatment can be considered unnecessary. Maintaining a regular lifestyle, relaxing, and eating less high-fat food and fewer caffeine-containing beverages are beneficial. If the pain affects normal life and work, timely treatment is needed to alleviate the pain. Surgery is generally not recommended unless the hyperplastic lumps cannot be ruled out for malignant transformation. For the treatment of cystic breast hyperplasia: If the cyst is small and the symptoms are mild, endocrine treatment can be carried out; if the cyst is large, has symptoms of compression, or if ultrasound suggests thickening of the cyst wall, rich blood supply, or intra-cystic tumors, or if the patient worries about cancer transformation causing significant mental stress, surgical treatment can be considered.
