Can I drink milk and yogurt if I have breast cysts?

People with breast cysts can usually drink milk and yogurt in moderation, but it is safer to consult a doctor based on their individual circumstances.

Breast cysts are a common benign breast disease, which mainly manifests as cystic masses of different sizes in the breast and is greatly affected by fluctuations in hormone levels. Although there are rumors that breast disease patients should stay away from dairy products, current studies have shown that milk and yogurt do not directly increase the risk of breast cysts.

Yogurt and milk provide high-quality protein, calcium and probiotics in the daily diet, which contribute to overall nutritional balance and intestinal health. In theory, these nutrients have no negative effects on breast health. However, when choosing dairy products, you should be careful to avoid excessive intake of yogurt with high sugar content or bad dairy products with added hormones, so as to avoid indirect effects on breast condition due to weight gain or hormone disturbance.

Patients with breast cysts should pay more attention to a light and balanced diet, eat vegetables and fruits rich in dietary fiber, and reduce the intake of greasy, spicy and processed foods. If breast cysts are accompanied by obvious discomfort or continue to grow, you need to go to the hospital in time and listen to the advice of professional doctors.
