Breast fibroids are a very common benign disease in life. Generally speaking, the chance of breast fibroids becoming malignant is very small. This disease usually develops slowly. Most of them are treated with medication first, and regular follow-up is required. However, medications cannot effectively cure breast fibroids. If the tumor grows larger, it still needs to be removed surgically. Why do women suffer from breast fibroids? Local breast tissue is overly sensitive to estrogen. Different parts of the breast tissue have different sensitivities to estrogen. Clinical studies have found that breast tissue that is highly sensitive to estrogen is more susceptible to disease. There is another situation where some women's breasts are too sensitive to estrogen, making them prone to breast diseases such as breast fibroids. Not paying attention to diet. Some women do not pay attention to their diet and consume high-calorie, high-fat foods for a long time, which leads to obesity and increased estrogen in the body, thus causing breast fibroids. Breast hyperplasia. Although breast fibroadenoma is a benign tumor, it can also have a certain impact on the body. The most common cause of breast fibroadenoma is breast hyperplasia. Therefore, if we are diagnosed with breast hyperplasia, we must undergo examination and treatment as soon as possible, otherwise it is very likely to develop into a tumor, including malignant tumors. Breast fibroids are benign tumors that evolve from breast hyperplasia. Genetic inheritance. It is one of the more special factors in the etiology of breast fibroids. If there is breast fibroid disease among the first-generation relatives (mother, sister, etc.), the family may be a high-risk group for the disease. It is now discovered that if a patient's blood or tissue contains the BRCA-1 gene, and if the BRCA-1 gene can also be found in her children, then her children are at a relatively high risk, but this does not mean that the disease is hereditary. The dangers of breast fibroids 1. Affects female breastfeeding. During pregnancy, women secrete a lot of estrogen, which can easily cause fibroids to grow larger. This can compress the blood vessels in the breasts, causing insufficient milk secretion and making it difficult for women to breastfeed. 2. Malignant lesions occur. Breast fibroids are the most common benign tumors and can occur at any age after puberty, especially in young women aged 20-30. This is mainly because it is closely related to estrogen stimulation. The incidence rate is relatively small before menstruation or after menopause, but a small number of women will experience malignant changes. 3. Lymph node metastasis and ipsilateral axillary lymph node enlargement may occur: the number of enlarged lymph nodes continues to increase and they adhere to each other into clumps. A small number of patients may experience contralateral axillary lymph node metastasis. Spinal metastasis may cause severe pain in the affected area or even paraplegia. Liver metastasis may cause jaundice and liver enlargement. |
