Does breast hyperplasia require surgery?

Breast hyperplasia usually does not require surgical treatment, but it needs to be treated according to the severity of the disease, including lifestyle adjustments, drug treatment, etc. In severe cases, such as suspected malignant changes or accompanied by obvious symptoms, surgical intervention may be required.

1 Cause Analysis

Breast hyperplasia is a common breast disease in women, which is often related to the fluctuation of hormone levels in the body. Long-term high estrogen levels lead to breast tissue hyperplasia. In addition, external factors such as mental stress, improper diet, and lack of sleep may induce or aggravate breast hyperplasia. Family inheritance may also increase the risk of breast problems.

2Determine whether surgery is needed

In most cases, breast hyperplasia is a benign disease that does not affect daily life and can usually be treated with observation, follow-up or conservative treatment. However, surgery may be considered in the following situations: First, when the diagnosis is unclear and some tissue needs to be removed for pathological examination; second, when the nodules continue to grow and are accompanied by pain or affect the appearance; third, when there are suspected signs of malignant transformation such as fixed nodules and bloody discharge.

3 Non-surgical treatments

Most patients only need to regulate their lifestyle and take appropriate medication to improve their symptoms: 1 Adjust your lifestyle, avoid staying up late, reduce caffeine and high-fat intake, and maintain a calm mind; 2 Drug control, such as the Chinese patent medicine Rupixiao Granules, vitamin E, etc. can relieve hyperplasia symptoms; 3 Under the guidance of a doctor, use drugs that regulate hormone levels such as danazol, tamoxifen, etc.

4 Surgical treatment

For cases that require surgery, the options are: 1. Resection of local diseased tissue to achieve diagnosis and treatment purposes; 2. Minimally invasive techniques such as breast radiofrequency ablation, which causes less trauma and quicker recovery; 3. If there is a possibility of malignant transformation, choose total mastectomy or breast-conserving resection to ensure safety.

Most cases of breast hyperplasia do not require surgical intervention, but regular monitoring and standardized treatment are key. If the condition worsens or you are concerned about the risk, it is recommended that you visit a breast specialist as soon as possible for a comprehensive examination and evaluation.
