Breast nodules are a precursor to breast cancer, how long does it take to go from breast enlargement to breast cancer

Breast enlargement is also known as lobular hyperplasia. The lobules are the basic building blocks of the mammary gland, and when estrogen levels are high in the body, the lobules become hyperplastic and engorged. When the hormone level drops, the hyperplastic lobules will return to their original state.

But if there is too much estrogen in the body, it will stimulate the mammary glands to continue to grow, and there is no way to restore all of them to their original state, and then the mammary glands will become hyperplastic.

And, the size of a girl's breasts is mainly determined by the amount of muscle and fat contained in the breasts, and the mammary glands have nothing to do with, as long as the estrogen secretion is out of balance, there will be mammary gland hyperplasia.

Can breast enlargement really be cancerous?

Breast enlargement is not the same as breast cancer. 95% of lobular hyperplasia is simple hyperplasia which is not cancerous.

Through imaging tests (such as ultrasound, molybdenum target) and pathologic tests, as well as hand examination by a professional doctor, it is possible to identify ordinary breast hyperplasia and this pre-cancerous lesion. As long as it is detected in time and controlled by timely treatments, not all of the pre-cancerous lesions will develop into breast cancer.

What tests can diagnose breast disease?

The basic three mammograms - molybdenum target, ultrasound, and magnetic **** vibration - each have their own merits.

Color ultrasound

Ultrasound has no radiation and is often used to examine young women. Breast color ultrasound is simple and quick, and is especially suited to examining pregnant and breastfeeding women and screening for breast disease. For benign nodules, ultrasound has a significantly higher detection rate than molybdenum target and can be used as a basic screening tool for all ages.

Magneto-*** vibration

Magneto-*** vibration provides a more accurate assessment of lesions that are difficult to determine from the results of mammography and ultrasound. However, people with claustrophobia, allergies to contrast media, and those who cannot be examined in the prone position are not suitable for breast MRI.

Molybdenum target

High-quality molybdenum targets are a reliable test for middle-aged women with loose breasts, and can also be used to help examine young, dense breasts when ultrasound is not decisive. At the same time, molybdenum target has a certain degree of radioactivity, and the whole breast has to be compressed and fluoroscoped during the examination, which will be a bit painful, so it is not suitable for menstruating and breastfeeding women.

Japan's medical equipment is accurate to the millimeter level, and the agents needed for imaging are configured on-site to maximize the effect of each test. Moreover, MultiMutualHealth can assess the different ages and genders of the domestic population, as well as their physical conditions, and develop the best medical checkup plan for medical checkups, which saves them a lot of unnecessary expenses.
