What does it mean when the breast gland is not echogenic?

The echogenicity of the breast gland is uneven, which is a benign hyperplasia; it is also necessary to exclude the symptoms caused by breast tumors. As the breast tissue is affected by the imbalance of estrogen and progesterone levels in the body, granular and lamellar hyperplasia of breast tissue will occur. Touching the breast will reveal irregularities in the gland and even hard lumps. The symptoms of breast enlargement will be significantly relieved or even disappear after the end of the menstrual cycle. Patients can have an ultrasound review after their menstruation to compare. If the symptoms are significantly reduced or disappear, there is no need to worry too much, and oral treatment with liver-clearing and qi-regulating medications, such as Prozac, is sufficient. If the symptoms still exist or the lump does not become soft, the patient needs further detailed examination and a biopsy can be taken for pathological examination.
