I. Can breast fibroids become cancerous? Breast fibroids are the most common benign tumors of the breast, mostly found in young women, but they can also appear in prepubescent and older women. According to the available information, there is a possibility of cancer, but the probability is very low and there is no accurate figure so far. Is surgery necessary for breast fibroids? Although it is a benign tumor, it is still a disease that may progress. In principle, fibroids should be removed surgically when found. However, since cancer is a small probability event, and as long as it does not become cancerous, it will not affect health too much, then the timing of surgery should be optional. Here again, there are many specific issues involved, such as the size of the lump, the location of the lump, whether to have children and breastfeeding, the impact on aesthetics, etc. Under what circumstances is surgery recommended and under what circumstances can surgery be postponed? Surgery is a treatment method, but it is inevitably traumatic and may affect breastfeeding and aesthetics. Especially for lumps close to the nipple, surgery can have a greater impact on breastfeeding. Therefore, I personally suggest that 1. young women, who have not given birth to a child and are not breastfeeding, and whose lumps are not large and close to the nipple, can be closely observed and can be operated after breastfeeding if there is not much change; however, during this process, the lumps may continue to grow, especially stimulated by hormonal changes during pregnancy and breastfeeding (which is actually not very likely), so you need to weigh the pros and cons yourself; 2. older women, especially those over 35 years old, and who no longer require breastfeeding. If a lump is found, early surgery is recommended. In the remaining cases, the doctor and patient should consider together and decide the timing of surgery at their discretion. 4. Is open surgery better or minimally invasive? This is also a question that many people repeatedly struggle with, but the existence is reasonable, and each type of surgery has its own advantages and shortcomings. In fact, we need to consider only two points: appearance and breastfeeding function. It should be noted here that minimally invasive means minimally invasive in appearance, with minimal skin wounds, but the damage to the breast gland parenchyma has no advantage compared to open surgery. In other words, if aesthetic protection is more important, minimally invasive is the first choice in any case. However, if breastfeeding is a consideration, we suggest that open surgery is more appropriate for lumps close to the nipple and through the areolar incision, which again does not significantly affect the aesthetics. V. Is surgery more likely to lead to recurrence? Many people hold the view that the tumor is growing there and cannot be stimulated, otherwise it will spread easily, and surgery to cut off one may induce more tumors to come out. If you want to trace the root of the tumor, most of them are told by “them”, but it is impossible to tell who this “them” is. In fact, the possibility of tumor recurrence always exists, but it varies from person to person, it may never happen again, or it may happen repeatedly. What should I pay attention to in general and can herbal medicine really “cure the mass”? At this stage of medical science, the exact cause of most diseases has not been found, and the same applies to fibroids. In other words, unfortunately, we do not know how fibroids occur and why they recur, so we cannot talk about accurate prevention. However, it does not mean that we don’t need to pay attention at all. From the current information, it may be related to hormones, so it should be helpful to maintain a harmonized hormonal status in the body by keeping a good mind, regular work and rest, proper exercise, avoiding contraceptive drugs as much as possible, and having a harmonious sex life. In addition, attention should be paid to self-examination and regular medical checkups, which can be found in the relevant information. As for the myth of Chinese herbal medicine, let’s just laugh it off.
