Mammary Dysplasia

Mammary dysplasia is a term that groups together benign changes in the breast tissue, such as nodules, denser areas, or cysts, that do not correspond to a malignant process. It is a common condition and usually varies with the hormonal cycle.

Frequent symptoms: a sensation of lumps or irregularities to the touch, tenderness or breast pain that may become more pronounced at certain times of the month.

When to see a doctor? For any new change, persistent lump, or discomfort that worries you, a checkup is worthwhile to distinguish it from other causes.

Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist evaluates these changes and, when necessary, coordinates with the gynecologic oncologist; the general practitioner can also guide the first consultation. Going in for a checkup allows a professional to evaluate the findings calmly and precisely.
