There is a lump on my chest, what's going on?

In life, most female friends have a worry about their breasts, such as underdeveloped breasts or early development, but these are minor problems. The big problem is that there are lumps in the breasts. Although in most cases this lump is not a big problem, it can cause cancer in severe cases. So once a lump is found, it is recommended to deal with it in time. The following is a detailed introduction to what happens when a lump grows on the chest? I hope this can solve the problem for everyone.

1. Breast lumps caused by human factors

Reasons such as female infertility due to advanced age, sexual dysfunction, artificial abortion, marital discord, and non-breastfeeding can cause the breast to be unable to have normal, cyclical physiological activities. In addition, wearing a bra that is too tight or wearing tight underwear can also cause breast lumps.

2. Unreasonable diet structure leads to breast hyperplasia

Eating high-fat, high-energy foods can lead to excessive fat intake, and bad habits such as drinking and smoking can induce breast diseases. In addition, high blood pressure and high blood sugar can easily cause endocrine disorders in women and lead to breast hyperplasia. The lumps are irregular in shape, appearing as flakes, nodules or cords, with unclear boundaries and no adhesion to the skin. They increase or decrease with the menstrual cycle and are often accompanied by breast tenderness or tingling.

3. Long-term use of estrogen-containing drugs can lead to breast diseases

Long-term excessive intake of estrogen by the human body will lead to endocrine imbalance. Some fast food, feed used for artificially raised aquatic products and poultry also contain hormone ingredients. Long-term consumption will also lead to breast diseases. For example, breast fibroadenoma is the most common benign breast tumor, which occurs frequently in young women in one or both breasts. Most of them are solitary, and a few are multiple. The tumor is round or oval, grows slowly, has a smooth surface, a flexible texture, and clear boundaries. The tumor is easily pushed away and has no adhesion to the skin.
