The alarm bell of environmental hormone pollution A full and firm chest is the source of charm that every woman wants to have, but if it grows on the body of a man, it adds endless misplaced worries. Wang, a college student, suffered from such misplaced anguish. During a swimming session with his classmates, one of his classmates unintentionally made a joke and said, “Your chest is so full, you can compete with your female classmates”. From then on, he began to be concerned about his chest, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong, the chest should be flat obviously some bulge, so he was afraid to take a bath in the public bathroom to expose his body, let alone go swimming, and finally became very sensitive and reluctant to interact with classmates, seriously affecting his mental health. The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers. The company’s main goal is to provide a comprehensive range of products and services to the public. In fact, nearly 2/3 of adolescents experience a period of breast development during puberty due to changes in hormone levels in the body, but most of them will naturally subside within 1-2 years. However, there are a small number of patients whose breasts do not subside and maintain an enlarged appearance after they reach the age of 18, so surgery can be considered when excluding a few cases of breast development secondary to gonadal or tumor-related systemic diseases. Finally, Wang underwent a minimally invasive mastectomy through a small incision in the areola, and the post-operative scar was very hidden and almost invisible. However, Dr. Zhang also pointed out that the incidence of gynecomastia is increasing year by year, and more and more young people are coming to the clinic. Although surgery can solve their problems, prevention of the cause of the disease is the root of the problem. Since the development of the breast is normally influenced by estrogen in the body, the stimulation of continuous low levels of estrogen in the body is an important trigger for the development of the male breast or the failure of the developed breast to subside. Combined with the current serious food safety and environmental pollution problems, both remind us that we should always pay attention to and be alert to the problem of hormone pollution within the environment. The so-called environmental hormones refer to the chemical substances released into the environment due to human activities. When they enter the organism directly or indirectly through the food chain, they can bind with the receptors in the body and play a role similar to that of endocrine hormones (most environmental hormones have estrogen-like or anti-androgenic effects), causing biological endocrine disorders, especially for adolescents in the growth and development period, which can easily lead to female-like breast This can lead to a significant increase in female-like breast development, especially in adolescents. It should be reminded that 90% of environmental hormones are ingested through food contamination, mainly through the following ways: ① pesticide residues used in the production of vegetables, fruits and cereals, plant growth regulators used for “ripening”; ② growth hormones used in artificially farmed fish and livestock; ③ food packaging (plastic films, cans coated with rust-proof resin, etc.) (3) food packaging (plastic film, cans coated with rust-proof resin, etc.) in chemical substances such as dioctyl phosphoribenzoate; (4) various additives in food processing. Therefore, it seems that human beings are now living in a “sea of environmental hormones”, and for this serious situation, environmentalists have given the following advice: First of all, we should protect the environment by not releasing chemical substances into it. As individuals, especially children in their adolescent years, they should actively take appropriate protective measures: 1. try to wash away pesticide or additive residues on food by soaking and repeated rinsing. 2. do not use foam containers for instant noodles, do not use polyvinyl chloride packaging materials for heating in microwave jealousy, and do not buy and use plastic baby products and toys. 3. reduce the consumption of offshore fish and artificially farmed fish, small fish and microorganisms ingest the chemicals in the sea, which are then eaten by larger fish. Due to this food chain, there are a lot of concentrated chemicals in large fish such as tuna and mackerel. In the total amount of dioxin ingested by Japanese people through food, about 60% from fish.4, a lot of green food cereals and yellow leafy greens, the results of a survey showed that easy to make the environmental hormone dioxin from the body of food such as brown rice, buckwheat, spinach, radish, millet, yellow rice and methion cabbage. Of course, for patients who are already in adult gynecomastia should not be too bothered and worried, Dr. Zhang Yingfan through the successful treatment of a large number of similar patients, the current minimally invasive mastectomy technology through small incisions is also becoming more and more perfect, can completely solve this embarrassing trouble for similar patients.
