Hot compresses for lobular hyperplasia have certain therapeutic effects, but the results may not be very significant. For patients with severe breast hyperplasia, breast supports can be used to lift the breasts, and Chinese medicine can be used for treatment. This involves soothing the liver and regulating qi, as well as balancing the thoroughfare and controlling vessels to alleviate pain and treat breast hyperplasia. Endocrine treatment is also an option, but it should be used as little as possible. For pre-menopausal women with very obvious pain, it can be taken before the onset of menstruation. Vitamin therapy can also be used, including vitamins B, C, E, etc. These have functions such as improving liver function, regulating sex hormone metabolism, and improving autonomic nervous functions, and can be used as adjunctive therapy for this condition. Vitamin E also has an effect in relieving pain.

Is lobular hyperplasia nodules serious?

Small hyperplastic nodules are generally not serious. If the nodules are between 0.2-0.4cm, we can treat them with traditional Chinese medicine, using methods to soothe the liver, regulate qi, and harmonize the thoroughfare and conception vessels to treat breast nodules; If the nodules are between 0.6-0.8cm, breast ultrasound determines them as benign. If the psychological burden is light, regular ultrasound examinations can be scheduled. If the psychological burden is heavy, the nodules can be removed by minimally invasive Mammatome rotation to achieve cure. If the nodules are larger than 1.0cm, it is recommended to first perform cytology aspiration and biopsy to prevent misdiagnosis. If determined to be benign, surgical treatment can be used; if malignant, a full-body exam is recommended to check for distant metastasis to formulate a surgical treatment plan.

Is lobular hyperplasia grade II severe?

Second-degree mammary lobular hyperplasia refers to simple mammary hyperplasia, which is not severe and has relatively mild symptoms or conditions. Most cases do not require treatment, but regular follow-up is necessary. For cases with more pronounced symptoms, we can use traditional Chinese medicine, which alleviates pain through methods such as soothing the liver and regulating qi, as well as harmonizing the thoroughfare and conception vessels. Vitamins can also be used to support treatment, with Vitamin B, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E improving liver function, regulating metabolic hormones, and enhancing autonomic nerve functions, serving as auxiliary medication for this condition. Vitamin E also helps relieve pain. Regular follow-up examinations with ultrasound and mammography are recommended. (Please use medications under the guidance of a doctor.)

What should I do if lobular hyperplasia recurs?

After the recurrence of lobular hyperplasia of the mammary gland, if there are significant symptoms, Chinese herbal medicine can be used to alleviate the pain through the method of soothing the liver and regulating the Qi, and harmonizing the Chong and Ren meridians. Endocrine treatment is also an option, but should be avoided if possible. However, it can be taken before menstruation if the pain is particularly severe in the pre-menopausal period. Vitamin therapy can also be used, including Vitamin B, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, etc., which have effects on improving liver function, regulating sex hormone metabolism, and improving autonomic nerve function. These can be used as adjunctive therapy for the disease. Some also believe that Vitamin E can relieve pain. Regular follow-ups with breast ultrasound and mammography are also necessary.

What does breast lobule feel like to the touch?

Fibrocystic breast changes may occur in one or both breasts, where palpable, nodular lumps of varying sizes can be felt. These lumps are firm but not hard, and sometimes painful. The boundary between the lumps and surrounding breast tissue is unclear, yet they are not adherent to the skin or chest muscles, sometimes appearing as unclearly bordered thickened areas. Lesions are more commonly located in the upper outer quadrant of the breast but can affect the entire breast. The lumps may enlarge during premenstrual or postmenstrual phases, but they typically reduce in size postmenstrually. Diagnosis can be confirmed through breast ultrasound and mammography. Breast ultrasound typically indicates proliferative breast tissue, showing areas of uneven, low echogenicity and, in cases of cysts, anechoic areas.
