A condition where a painful lump forms in the breast due to imbalances in female hormone levels, causing symptoms to occur before and during menstruation.
Typical Symptoms of Mastopathy
- Breast lump
- Headache with sharp, electric shock-like pain
- Inappropriate milk production e.g. not pregnant or with recent childbirth, or as a male
- Pain when pressing on the breast
- Smooth, round and movable lump
- Difference in nipple heights or appearance of the breast/s such as a dimpled area
- Nipples are very sensitive
- Swollen lymph nodes, usually small swellings at the neck, armpits, groin and behind the ears
Diagnostic Questions for Mastopathy
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Do you have a breast lump?
- Does your headache feel like an electric shock?
- Are you producing breast milk without being pregnant or giving birth, or if you are a man?
- Does pressing on your breast cause pain?
- Do you have a movable smooth lump under your skin?
Treatment of Mastopathy
This condition may improve without treatment. Meanwhile, medications and hormone treatment can be given to alleviate pain. Sometimes, it is caused by diabetes, and maintaining good blood sugar levels may help prevent its recurrence.
