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.

What department should I go to for breast hyperplasia?

In general, large hospitals manage breast hyperplasia under the department of breast internal medicine, or it can also be seen in the department of breast surgery. Moreover, smaller hospitals that do not have a dedicated breast department categorize it under oncology or thyroid department, and sometimes under gynecology. Therefore, it is necessary to consult the local hospital to determine which department to visit for this condition. Then, further diagnostic procedures like breast ultrasound and mammography can be conducted to determine if it is breast hyperplasia.

Breast hyperplasia is related to what?

Breast hyperplasia is currently believed to be related to endocrine disorder, leading to increased levels of estrogen, as well as external living and working conditions, interpersonal relationships, and various other stresses. These factors can cause breast hyperplasia. During the menstrual cycle, the breast is affected by changes in endocrine levels, experiencing cyclical changes. Hormonal imbalances, characterized by high levels of estrogen and reduced secretion of progesterone, can lead to incomplete recovery after breast hyperplasia, thereby causing the condition. Mainly, controlling emotions is essential. The primary symptoms are cyclical swelling and pain in the breasts.

Breast hyperplasia massage technique

Massaging the breasts can maintain good blood circulation within the breasts and assist in the treatment of breast hyperplasia. Apply olive oil to the breasts and then start massaging. Step 1: With the thumb on one side and the other four fingers together on the other side, spread the web between thumb and index finger. Push from the outer sides of both breasts towards the center to prevent the breasts from expanding outward. Do 30 pushes on each side. Step 2: Keep the same hand shape, starting with the left breast. The left hand pushes the left breast from the outside toward the center. After reaching the center, use the right hand to push up the left breast from below to the collarbone area. This means both hands are alternately pushing the left breast. Repeat this 30 times and then switch to the right breast. This massaging method is very important for treating breast hyperplasia. Step 3: Shape your hands like a cup, with fingers slightly apart, enough to cover the breasts. Lean forward slightly, cover the breasts with both hands, and lift from the bottom (not lower part) towards the nipple. Repeat this 20 times. Step 4: Massage around the breasts in a circular motion, until all the remaining essential oil on the chest is absorbed. A special reminder: Patients with larger cysts should not massage, as excessive force may cause the cysts to rupture.

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.

Is breast hyperplasia scary?

Breast hyperplasia is a common breast disease, mostly seen in women aged 25 to 50. Clinical examinations show that 50% of women have cystic hyperplastic changes in the breast. In addition to the benign proliferation of breast fibrous tissue and epithelium accompanied by cysts, there is also the formation of fibroadenomas. The development into breast cancer is absolutely low risk, or generally does not undergo malignant transformation. Therefore, it is referred to as cystic breast hyperplasia or poor breast structure. Generally, the treatment is mainly focused on emotional aspects, and if the pain intensifies, treatment with traditional Chinese medicine can be utilized.
