In general, severe mammary hyperplasia can be cured, but the treatment method should be determined according to individual circumstances. Severe mammary hyperplasia is a relatively serious condition; if not treated promptly, it may develop into breast cancer. The main treatments for severe mammary hyperplasia include medication and surgery. Medication therapy primarily involves taking traditional Chinese medicine or Western drugs to regulate endocrine function and relieve symptoms. However, the effectiveness of drug therapy is limited and recurrence is common. Surgical treatment is a more effective approach, involving removal of the hyperplastic breast tissue to address the problem at its root. After surgery, patients should rest adequately, maintain breast hygiene, and prevent wound infection. It is recommended that patients seek medical attention early and follow professional doctors' guidance to choose an appropriate treatment plan. Maintaining healthy lifestyle habits—such as eating a balanced diet, avoiding staying up late, and performing regular breast examinations—can help prevent recurrence of mammary hyperplasia.
