How to Fight with the Dense Breast

In this world, the number of female suffering is way much more than any other nature’s creature has. Dense breast is the most dangerous out of them.

It’s been reported that about 50-60 percentage of the woman who ages 40-44 have dense breasts. The figures slide down as the age increases. (20-30 percentage ages 70-74) Studies have also shown that woman with a healthy weight has high-chances of the dense breast than the woman who is obese. But there is no need to panic ladies. These studies only show that the dense breast is common, and not everyone who has dense breasts will end up having breast cancer. The thing to concern is breast density. If it rises, then one should need to worry. 

 

Here, the first thing a woman needs to do is to first examine by herself that is she is having any symptom of the dense breast? Here’s how she can find it: -

  • Having irregular itching in the breast and swelling.
  • Feeling pain in the breast
  • Family history of dense breasts.
  • Having a hereditary breast cancer gene mutation, such as BRCA1 or BRCA2.
  • Overweight.

Other than these, regular breast screening is the best thing a woman can do to examine the symptoms of the dense breast. 

 

Here is how your dense breast doctor will do to examine your breast condition: -

Mammography

The breast consists of milk glands, milk ducts, and supportive tissues which are also known as dense breast tissues, and fatty tissue. Mammography is a treatment in which the radiologist uses Mammograms to find out the abnormalities in the breast. Mammography is helpful if the breast density is low. But if the cancerous cells are higher then it will be harder for the radiologist to find out the abnormalities using a mammogram   

 

Breast MRI: If Mammography isn’t helping much, doctors prefers Breast MRI. It takes multiple images of the breast, which when combined, give a detailed image of the breast and helps to find out the causes of abnormalities. MRI uses Magnets to give the radiologist a clear view of the breast and help in finding the abnormalities. 

 

TyrerCuzick: It’s a treatment in which a series of questions asked to the patient by the doctor, which plays a vital role in the dense breast treatment. In this effective treatment, patients are being asked about their family history their old habits, and many other things that will let the doctor have a clear view of her condition. 

 

Breast ultrasound

 In Breast ultrasound, the radiologist uses sound waves to produce pictures of the internal structure of the breast. Ultrasound is the painless method of screening. It uses a small probe called a transducer and gel placed directly on the skin. High-frequency sound waves travel from the probe through the gel into the body. 

 

There is no specific cure of dense breast has been found yet. But we can reduce it by following a healthy diet and a regular screening.
