Can thickened breast glandular tissue heal on its own?
Breast gland thickening is known as mammary hyperplasia. Whether it can resolve spontaneously depends on the individual patient's condition.
Mild cases of mammary hyperplasia are usually caused by hormonal imbalances before menstruation, and may also be triggered by stress or irregular lifestyle habits. Such cases generally do not require medication; instead, adjusting sleep patterns and improving dietary habits are sufficient. However, when hyperplasia is caused by underlying diseases, it typically does not resolve on its own. Patients may experience persistent breast lumps, ongoing pain, and sometimes nipple discharge. These cases require medical treatment under a doctor's guidance, and in severe cases, surgery may be necessary.
In addition, during treatment patients should focus on eating light, nutritious, and easily digestible foods. Consuming more fresh fruits and vegetables is beneficial for overall health. Patients should avoid raw, cold, greasy, fried, spicy, or stimulating foods to promote faster recovery.
