1. Breast lumps Lumps can occur in one or both breasts, single or multiple, often in the upper outer quadrant of the breast, but can also be seen in other quadrants. The shapes of the lumps include flake-shaped, nodular-shaped, cord-shaped, granular-shaped, etc., among which the flake-shaped is the most common.

2. Nipple discharge: Patients with breast hyperplasia during lactation may experience nipple discharge, which is spontaneous, straw-yellow or brown serous discharge.

3. Menstrual disorders: Patients with this disease may also experience irregular menstruation, small amount of menstruation or light color, and may be accompanied by dysmenorrhea.

4. Emotional changes Patients often feel depressed or irritable, which worsens when they are angry, nervous or tired.

It is not recommended for breast hyperplasia patients during lactation to use surgical treatment because it causes extensive damage, only treats the symptoms but not the root cause, is prone to recurrence, and requires a recovery period after surgery, which is unacceptable. However, for patients with more severe breast hyperplasia, if a lump is found that grows rapidly or becomes hard in a short period of time, the possibility of cancer should be highly suspected, and a biopsy or simple breast resection should be performed if necessary. If cancer cells are found in frozen sections during surgery, the patient should be treated as having breast cancer.
