    Don’t hurt it by fooling around, pay more attention to changes every day, and do regular standard screenings. It is 100 times more reliable than essential oil massage and breast enhancement projects that cost thousands of dollars.

    I just met a 32-year-old girl at the outpatient clinic last month. I heard from the beauty salon that massage can clear breast nodules. She spent more than 20,000 to apply for an annual card. I massaged it twice a week. After three months of massage, the 1cm nodule grew to 2cm. The puncture revealed that it was benign, but the surgery was in vain. Think about it, the structure of the mammary gland is like a bunch of grapes hanging on the chest. The glandular lobes are grape grains and the ducts are connected stems. The vigorous rubbing techniques of beauticians not only fail to "knead" the nodules, but may also break the delicate glandular lobes. If there are nodules of unknown nature, repeated stimulation will accelerate the growth. There is really no need to spend such unnecessary money.

    After talking about the most common IQ tax, let’s talk about the most frequently asked dietary questions. Many people are confused about whether papaya can enlarge breasts and whether drinking soy milk can induce breast cancer. The academic community has also had different views on these two issues. In the past few years, there was indeed a small sample study saying that phytoestrogens may affect breast health. Later, larger-scale epidemiological surveys have long overturned this conclusion: papaya in papaya Enzymes that are eaten into the stomach have long been decomposed by gastric acid and have no effect on the breast glands. Eating too much raw papaya can easily irritate the gastrointestinal tract. As for the soy isoflavones in soy milk and human estrogen, there is no problem at all. Drinking 300ml a day is absolutely fine. Even drinking soy products in moderation for a long time can help regulate hormone levels in the body and reduce the risk of breast disease. It really doesn’t matter.

    Oh, by the way, many people think that there is nothing wrong with the breasts if they don’t hurt. This is really not true. I know a 45-year-old sister who skips the breast ultrasound every year because she finds it troublesome to have a physical examination at work. The year before last, she suddenly felt a hard lump while taking a shower and was found to be in the middle stage of breast cancer. If she had been screened two years earlier, she would not have had to undergo a full mastectomy at all. In fact, daily observation is very simple. When taking a bath, just press the entire breast and armpit area with your fingertips flatly. There is no need to rub it blindly. If you feel hard lumps that won't move, discharge during non-lactation period, or the breast skin suddenly wrinkles like orange peel, don't delay, and quickly go to the breast department of a regular hospital to register.

    There are also some small details that are easily overlooked in daily life, but have a great impact on the breasts. For example, in order to show off the small breasts, adolescent girls wear tight corsets that are so tight that they can’t breathe. Long-term pressure can cause poor blood supply to the breasts, which can easily induce hyperplasia. There are also many people who are accustomed to holding their breasts and hunchback, and the entire breasts are in a state of being squeezed. Over time, it will also affect local circulation. I met a 28-year-old Internet operator before. He worked on a project for a month. Before his period, his breasts hurt so much that he couldn't even put on underwear. He was diagnosed with bilateral mammary gland hyperplasia. Later, he was advised to walk briskly for half an hour every day.

    There is still a lot of controversy about breast hyperplasia. Some people say that it is not a disease and do not need to be taken care of at all. Others say that the hyperplasia will turn into cancer and they are scared to take health supplements every day. In fact, both opinions are a bit extreme. Most people’s swelling and pain before menstruation and mild hyperplasia are physiological. Following the changes in hormone cycles, menstruation will be over. It will relieve the pain, and you don’t need to take special medicine at all, let alone buy so-called “unhealing health products”. Estrogen may be secretly added to them, which will stimulate the breast glands. However, if it is persistent pain that does not change with the menstrual cycle and a clear lump is palpable, you still need to find a doctor for investigation in time, and don’t force it or treat it randomly.

    I have been in the breast department for almost ten years, and I have seen too many people spend tens of thousands of dollars on IQ taxes. In fact, the best way to take care of your breasts is to treat them less and pay more attention to them. If you have any problems, go to a doctor in a regular hospital, which is more effective than any folk prescription.
