When it comes to female breast, they talk about different forms - big, small, in the form of a pear, dispersed. Women's mammary glands look and feel differently.Most women, due to dense and elastic fabric at the base of the mammary glands, they seem uneven. For many women, such a consistency with separate convex formations are completely natural. Indeed, rather common complaints of women older than 40 years are mentioning the bugger of the mammary glands.
Before starting menstruation, the mammary glands become more bug. In this phase of the monthly cycle in the body of a woman, the formation of genital hormones Ktrogen, progesterone and prolactin increases dramatically. These hormones stimulate the growth of the fibrous tissue of the mammary glands and the fluid delay in the body. When menstruation begins, resorption of excessive tissues and fluid. In the process of aging, a certain number of connective tissue remains forever, which makes the dairy glands are more dense in separate places. Such disorders are often referred to as fibrous-cystic mastopathy. Currently, doctors consider them unlawful to attribute them to the number of diseases. This education can be viewed as a natural phenomenon in older women,
You ask, why have the conversation about normal milk glasses? The answer is very simple. Because breast cancer first manifests itself in the form of tubercles (unless it is detected earlier when mammography), discovering which woman flows into panic. In fact, a huge amount of similar tubercles are not a cancer.
Mobile education, consistency resembling marmalade or grape and highlighted from the total dense mass is likely to be a pile. Cysta is a liqueur-filled bag. It arises when blocking the dairy duct and the absence of outflow of the edge of the gland. Cysts can cause pain, but they do not lead to cancer development. Usually they are resolved with the onset of menstruation.
Low-moving education, in density similar to dried beans or peas, give grounds for concern. In these dense, fixed nodules may (but not always) detect cancer cells.
Movable dense balls often turn out to be tumors of uncooked origin. They are known called Fibroaden. Solid, irregularly shaped lumps in gland fabrics are likely to be consequences of injury or furuncle, located close to the surface of the gland. In the event of a swelling in the nipple area, it is likely to think about the infection of the dairy duct.
Ask a specialist to teach you an independent inspection of the mammary glands
The best way to learn to recognize abnormal formations in the breast is to ask the specialist to conduct a survey for the first time with you.
Obtaining instructions from a doctor or nurse saved many women from panic associated with their finds. A big dense knot turned out to be often edge edge.
Observe the monthly examination schedule
Making a schedule, it will be easier for you to remember the results of the inspection in the previous month. The best time for inspection of the mammary glands is the seventh-tenth day, counting from the start of menstruation. At this time, the mammary glands are less sensitive and there are fewer pegs in them. If you have already ended with menstruation or you get replacement therapy hormones, spend a mammary survey on the first day of the month. It does not matter which method you will prefer, it is important to do it constantly. Thus, you can detect any occurring changes.
Try to conduct a survey lying on the back
Small nodules are easier to detect, especially in the case of the lactic glands of large size, in the lying position, with one hand, laid above the head. Paddle pads of the other hand tightly press the milk gland, performing circular movements from the nipple until you examine the whole area of the chest, including the nipple and the areal. You also need to examine the supervised breast departments to the clavicle, as well as the axillary region. If you are added in weight or lose weight, you can find seals that did not notice before. (Remember that the dense edge along the lower semicircle of each breast is a normal phenomenon).
Do regularly mammography
Studies show that X-ray study of the dairy gland allows two years earlier to identify the seal than when examining a doctor. Three quarters of all nodules that are found on the mammogram are cysts, pieces of fabric or calcium deposits. American Cancer Society recommends Mammogram at the age of 40 for the first time, then once every two years, up to 50 years. After that you need to make mammography annually.
If you find a cyst like a water bubble, a doctor can remove liquid from it using a needle. This is a simple operation that is performed in outpatient conditions. If after this intervention is the feet of the walls of the cyst (which is most likely), then you can be sure that it is not cancer.
Be prepared for the following diagnostic tests
If there is no liquid from the cyst, you may be directed to a mammographic or ultrasound study. With their help, you can determine the size and shape of the tumor. The doctor then can perform a biopsy operation with the needle (removal of a piece of fabric) to make cell analysis to identify pathology.
Biopsy is the only precise method of diagnosing tumor. If the node is small, the surgeon can remove it entirely during the biopsy. If a tumor is large, only part of it is removed for analysis. If cancer is found, then the doctor, together with the patient, has to resolve the nature of the operation. This may be the removal of the tumor node along with part of the adjacent tissues and axillary lymph nodes or mastectomy - the removal of part or all the breast.
Reduce the reception of too fat food. Fat turns into estrogen, which contributes to the growth of tissues of the mammary glands, and also leads to a delay in fluid and salt in the body, worsened the course of cystic formations. It should be moved to meals, comprising nonsense grain and cereals, fruits and vegetables. All these products make it possible to prevent the development of tumors.
Make friends with bran flakes. By increasing the reception of write rich in vegetable fibers, you can increase the absorption of excess estrogen and derive it from the body. If the estrogen does not extend and it remains high enough, then the fluid delay in the body increases and the development of breast tumors is accelerated. And once again it should be emphasized that perfect food includes mainly non-bell grain and cereals, fruits and vegetables.
Get rid of excess weight. Try to maintain the perfect weight corresponding to your growth. Obesity is associated with an increase in the content of estrogen in the blood and creates prerequisites for the development of breast tumors.
