Breast nodules are caused by factors such as unhealthy lifestyle habits and abnormal hormone secretion. The condition has multiple causes and is considered a comprehensive disease, including relatively excessive secretion of estrogen and progesterone, along with insufficient androgen production. Unhealthy habits such as frequent熬夜 (staying up late), smoking, and overworking, as well as dietary issues—such as regularly consuming foods high in hormones like fried chicken—can contribute to the development of breast nodules. Timely treatment should be sought once a diagnosis is confirmed.
