Why are my breasts itchy and painful?

Women's breasts are very sensitive parts of the body. When there are some problems with women's health, the breasts will feel it, so some symptoms will appear in the breasts. Nowadays, women have to deal with the pressure of family life as well as the pressure of work, and often neglect their physical health. When breast pain and itching occur, it should be taken seriously, as it may be caused by some disease.

What are the causes of breast hyperplasia?

1. Squeezing the chest. Long-term compression of the breasts will affect blood circulation and supply, causing breast ischemia and spasm, and finally causing breast hyperplasia or cysts.

TIPS: Do more aerobic exercise, or do simple movements such as chest expansion, deep breathing, and waist rotation to prevent breast aging.

2. Drinking coffee, eating cocoa and chocolate frequently, these foods contain a lot of xanthine, which can promote benign breast hyperplasia.

TIPS: Eat kelp in moderation. Kelp contains a large amount of iodine, which can promote the luteinization of ovarian follicles, thereby reducing estrogen levels in the body and adjusting endocrine disorders. But you should not eat too much kelp, as too much iodine in the body can affect your health.

3. Staying up late and lack of sleep can also cause breast hyperplasia. These adverse factors will aggravate the original symptoms of breast hyperplasia.

TIPS: Pay attention to rest, go to bed early and get up early. This will help establish a good balance of the internal environment and promote the coordinated action of various hormones. In addition, your emotions should not fluctuate greatly, and you should maintain a happy mood.

TIPS: Choose to have sex during the safe period or use condoms.

5. If you do not breastfeed after childbirth or breastfeed for less than 8 months, milk stasis will occur and the probability of breast disease will increase.

TIPS: Stopping breastfeeding as soon as possible after childbirth can reduce the risk of breast disease and help the new mother's uterus contract.
