Multiple fibroids of the breast are the most common benign tumors of the breast, and they occur in about 15% of women with more than 2 fibroids in the breast. It occurs in women of childbearing age between 20 and 39 years old because of the high ovarian function and the activity of sex hormones in this age group. It is believed that the development of multiple fibroids in the breast is related to estrogen stimulation, which is mainly manifested by different degrees of hyperplasia in the epithelial and fibrous tissues of the breast. Although mammary fibroids are benign tumors, the epithelial and fibrous tissues of the breast undergo different degrees of hyperplasia when stimulated by estrogen, resulting in the formation of mammary fibroids. It may appear at any age after puberty, but it is most common in women between the ages of 18 and 25 because of their high ovarian function and peak estrogen levels. Therefore, it is important to have early checkups and treatment if you have mastopexy, otherwise it is likely to develop into a tumor, which includes malignant tumors. The cause of multiple breast fibroids is clinically related to the following aspects: 1. Endocrine factors: multiple breast fibroids are related to reproductive or endocrine factors, the following groups of people have 1.3-3 times more multiple breast fibroids than the normal population, such as the age of menarche is less than 12 years old or the age of menopause is greater than 55 years old. The age of menarche is less than 12 years old or the age of menopause is more than 55 years old; high estrogen level or estrogen replacement therapy after menopause; the age of birth of the first child is more than 35 years old, or no birth, no breastfeeding after delivery; short menstrual cycle, which indicates the long duration of estrogen action. 2. Congenital factors, i.e. abnormally high sensitivity of fibroblasts in the lobules of the breast to estrogen, may be due to the high number of estrogen receptors contained in these fibroblasts. 3.In addition, it is generally believed that the production of multiple breast fibroids is related to the stimulation of estrogen. Since the breast tissue of some people is more sensitive to estrogen, the epithelial and fiber tissues of the breast will undergo different degrees of hyperplasia due to the stimulation of estrogen. 4. Genetic inheritance: If there is multiple breast fibroid disease in the first generation of relatives (mothers, sisters, etc.), this family may be a high-risk group for the development of the disease. This does not mean that the disease is hereditary. The difference between mammary fibroids and mastopexy is similar: both can be seen as a single or multiple breast lump with a firm texture. Differences: Most breast lumps in mastocytosis are bilateral and multiple, with different sizes, nodular, lumpy or granular, generally soft, but also hard and firm, occasionally unilateral and single, but mostly accompanied by premenstrual breast swelling and pain when touched, and the size and nature of the breast lumps can change periodically with menstruation, and the age of onset is mostly young and middle-aged; most breast lumps in mastocytic fibroadenoma are unilateral and single. Most breast lumps are unilateral, round or ovoid, with clear borders, high mobility, and generally firm texture, but there are also multiple breast lumps, but there is usually no breast distention or only mild menstrual breast discomfort, no tenderness, and the size of breast lumps does not change with the menstrual cycle. In addition, on mammograms, breast fibroadenomas often appear as round or ovoid shadows of uniform density and their characteristic ring-shaped transparent halo, which can be an important basis for differential diagnosis. Patients with atypical clinical manifestations or no obvious premenstrual breast pain, but only breast lumps, especially single, hard, unilateral lumps, should be distinguished from fibroadenoma and breast cancer. How to diagnose? Mammogram is very helpful to diagnose breast fibroids, but it is only available in a few large hospitals and the examination fee is relatively high, which also includes the factor of the level of the doctor who reads the film. 2, ultrasound examination, for the determination of cystic lumps and the localization of the lump measurement is more than good. In addition to this, it is also very difficult to determine the benignity and malignancy of breast fibroids. 3. Physical examination: Physical examination by a doctor is extremely important to determine the benignity and malignancy of breast fibroids. However, the accuracy of the judgment otherwise depends on the professional experience of the doctor. If a doctor has been in contact with this kind of disease for a long time, and he is also good at summing up experience, then after examining the patient, he will have a seven out of ten in his mind, and if the signs are typical, even without any examination, he can make a definite diagnosis, including sometimes the instrument examination is not as accurate as his manual examination is often encountered. The doctor’s feeling is often only understandable, but difficult to say. So you should always look for a breast specialist. 4, puncture, is to insert a fine needle into the lump, extract a small amount of tissue, for cytological examination. This is a good and straightforward test, which is not only inexpensive but often very accurate, and can be combined with ultrasound and X-ray positioning for puncture in hospitals where available. Usually to confirm the diagnosis of breast fibroids, the doctor will make a preliminary conclusion by palpation and based on the symptoms of breast fibroids, and then will support some instrumentation to further confirm. Are breast fibroids fatal? What are the effects of fibroids on the body: 1. During pregnancy, women secrete a lot of estrogen, which can easily make fibroids bigger, which may compress the blood vessels in women’s breasts and cause insufficient milk secretion, making it difficult for women to breastfeed. 2. Malignant changes occur. Breast fibroids are the most common benign tumors that can occur at any age after puberty, especially in young women between 20 and 30 years old. The main reason is that it is related to estrogen stimulation, while the percentage of occurrence is relatively small before menstruation or after menopause, but malignant changes may occur in a few women. 3, malignant metastases appear lymphatic metastases, ipsilateral axillary lymph nodes swelling: the number of enlarged lymph nodes increasing, adhering to each other into a group, a few patients can appear contralateral axillary lymphatic metastases crestal metastases can appear severe pain or even paraplegia, liver metastases can appear jaundice, hepatomegaly, etc.. Therefore, if you find one or more lumps in the outer upper quadrant of the breast, round or ovoid in shape, 1-3 cm in diameter, with smooth surface, hard texture and clear borders, you should be alert to whether it is breast fibroids, and should go to the hospital to confirm the diagnosis and treat it as soon as possible. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. The back of a woman is closely related to her breast health. The back should be straight when walking and the breasts should be naturally raised, and the chest should be lifted when sitting or standing. 2, eat less barbecue food and fried food. Fish protein, vitamin A, vitamin D, etc. also have a role in protecting the breast and preventing breast cancer. 3. Wear less corsets or tight-fitting clothes and use bras wisely. It is best to use soft, breathable and absorbent cotton bras. Usually pay attention to the cleanliness of the bra, when sleeping must take off the bra. 4, careful use of breast enhancement products. Eat more fish, meat and dairy products in moderation in daily life, which can increase a small amount of fat and keep the fullness of the breast. 5, avoid over-stimulation of the breast, regular sex can promote the blood circulation of the breast, the increase in the secretion of sex hormones, which is conducive to the health of women’s breasts. 6, keep the right amount of exercise. Exercise not only helps breast beauty, but also reduces the incidence of breast disease. If you do 4 hours of exercise a week, your chances of getting breast cancer will be reduced by 60% compared to not doing exercise. 7. Breast self-examination must be done monthly and professional examination must be done annually. The best time for self-examination is 7 to 10 days after each menstrual period. If you find lumps in your breasts, localized breast or nipple depressions, or enlarged lymph nodes in the armpits, you must seek medical attention in time. During the annual physical examination, women-specific examinations, breast ultrasound, mammograms, etc. should be done to detect early lesions of breast diseases in a timely manner. 8, keep a happy and relaxed mood, to ensure adequate sleep. According to Chinese medicine, music has the effect of opening up the blood vessels, invigorating the spirit and preventing breast diseases. The current treatment of breast adenofibroma is preferred to surgical removal, other than that there is no other conservative treatment to eliminate breast fibroma.
