Ms. Wang had just turned 30 when she was diagnosed with breast hyperplasia by her doctor. The other day she came to my clinic, and after entering the clinic, her mouth was like clockwork as she confided in me about her breast pain, generalized weakness, irregular menstruation, and mother-in-law-daughter-in-law disharmony, etc. Finally, she told me that she had been taking traditional Chinese medicine for one year, but her breast pain was still the same. I told her that breast hyperplasia is the most common breast disease in women, and its incidence accounts for the first place of breast diseases. In recent years, the incidence of this disease has been on the rise year by year, and the age is getting younger and younger. Breast hyperplasia can not only rely on drug treatment, it is more important to regulate itself according to the cause of the disease. The so-called three points of treatment, seven points of conditioning! 1. Regulate emotions: don’t be angry, don’t be depressed, be calm and peaceful, and let your liver and qi flow! Unhealthy emotions are the most common and important factor leading to breast enlargement. According to Chinese medicine, anger hurts the liver, and when liver qi is not comfortable, the qi is stagnant, leading to blockage of the meridians, and when there is no blockage, there is pain. Ms. Wang’s daily life is often because of trivial quarrels with her mother-in-law and husband, and her son’s naughtiness also hurt her a lot. Her breast pain worsened every time she got angry. I told her that the most important thing in “all things” is health. One of the worst emotions than anger is depression. Depression not only harms the liver, but also affects the function of the spleen and stomach. According to traditional Chinese medicine, when the spleen is not functioning, phlegm and dampness are generated, which not only causes stagnation of qi, but also damages the mind and spirit. If it’s easy to control anger, it’s a little harder to eliminate depression. Sometimes it is even necessary to go to the psychological clinic to seek medical help. 2. Regulate diet: less spicy, less greasy, light and nutritious, dietary moderation! People who overindulge in cold, sweet, spicy and greasy foods, as well as those who have irregular diets are more vulnerable to breast enlargement. Ms. Wong asked why every doctor, including medical and surgical ones, recommends a light diet. In fact, the reason is very simple, “the spleen and stomach are the foundation of the later life”, the old ancestors told us 2000 years ago that we should “eat and drink in moderation”, dietary irregularity will damage the spleen and stomach, causing diseases. Healthy eating habits for different disease requirements are common, drowning in fat, sweet and cold not only cause cardiovascular disease, is also one of the culprits of breast hyperplasia. 3. Regulate pressure: do not stress, do not overwork, combine work and rest, exercise properly! The pace of life of modern people is getting faster and faster, and the number of professional women with breast enlargement is also increasing. Pressure from the family, professional pressure, social pressure entangled together, so that people feel “pressure”, can not be relieved. At the same time, due to the lack of awareness of the disease, nervousness often accompanies women with breast enlargement, worrying about the development of the disease, worrying about the unexpected occurrence of breast cancer. Excessive exertion, including too frequent sexual life of couples can also lead to overwork, “depletion of vital energy will be kidney deficiency and spleen injury, filling the loss of nourishment, and birth of breast fetish”. Breast fetish is an alias for breast hyperplasia. Therefore, the combination of work and rest is also a panacea for the treatment of breast enlargement. 4. Regulate work and rest: do not stay up late, sleep well, regular work and rest, and live regularly! Ms. Wang also suffered from insomnia due to excessive thinking. Every night can only rely on the sound of TV dramas to paralyze themselves in order to sleep. Some young girls with breast enlargement are seen in clinics because they like to stay up late. When others have already gone to sleep, their night life has just begun. Internet cafes, discos, nightclubs and bars in the early hours of the morning are filled with laughter and laughter, but also planted the root of the scourge of health. People are a part of nature, the law of human life should also be consistent with the laws of nature in order to make the body “balance of yin and yang, disease does not arise. 5. Regular physical examination: self-check, doctor check, once a year, before disease prevention. It is not scary to have breast hyperplasia, but it is scary to have breast cancer. Especially for women over 35 years old, it is more important to insist on breast health checkups. At present, it is believed that health checkup is still the best way to detect breast cancer at an early stage, and early diagnosis and early treatment of breast cancer can get quite ideal treatment results. Most of the early breast cancer patients have gained long-term survival of more than 10 years after standardized treatment. Doctors’ advice is: after the development of breasts in girls, every month to carry out self-breast physical examination, women over 35 years of age, go to the hospital once a year to do a physical examination, according to the doctor’s recommendations for ultrasound or mammogram examination. 6. medication, breast pain, breast swelling, identification and treatment, wish you health! I was surprised to hear Ms. Wang say that she had been taking Chinese medicine continuously for a year. Then listen to her say the method of taking medication I’m even more staggered, it turns out that she is to the drugstore to buy at random, all with the word “breast” of the Chinese patent medicine almost all eaten. What capsule, oral liquid, pills, loose and so on, home have everything. I told her that breast hyperplasia is not a disease limited to the breasts, but is a manifestation of systemic diseases in the breasts. Before using Chinese medicine or proprietary Chinese medicines, you have to “identify” the disease according to your general condition, and only when you prescribe the right medicine can you get rid of the disease. In Chinese medicine, some cases of breast hyperplasia are characterized by liver qi stagnation, some by kidney yang qi deficiency, and some by rechargeable disorders. There are different treatments for different syndromes, so it is only right to consult a doctor for “diagnosis and treatment”. At the same time, I do not recommend long-term oral medication for breast enlargement patients. In short, breast enlargement is a disease related to lifestyle habits, and self-regulation is far more important than medication. In addition to the above factors, other factors such as infertility at an advanced age, not breastfeeding after childbirth, frequent abortions, too tight underwear, sexual disharmony, etc. are all factors that affect the health of women’s breasts. As far as possible within the scope of self-control, “emotional stability, dietary discipline, regularity of daily living, combination of work and rest, and regular medical checkups” can be kept in mind as the “health code” for breast enlargement. In addition, as a doctor, I do not recommend breast enlargement patients to take oral medication for a long period of time. As the saying goes, “medicine is three times poisonous”, medication accounts for “three points” and self-regulation accounts for “seven points”! !
