What department should I visit for a breast examination for women?
Women can visit the gynecology or breast department for breast examination, including breast B-ultrasound, which can generally determine whether there are diseases such as breast hyperplasia. It is recommended not to wear a dress on the day of the hospital visit, as the upper clothes usually need to be taken off during the examination, and wearing a dress may cause embarrassment. If breast hyperplasia is detected, timely medication can be used, and attention should be paid to maintaining a light diet and supplementing vitamins. The best time for breast examination is:
1. The best time for breast examination is around the 7th to 10th day after menstruation, equivalent to 3-5 days after menstruation ends.
2. Breast examination is very necessary. It is best to have a breast check every year, and after 40, it is recommended to have two checks per year. After 40, the incidence of breast cancer among women is higher, and breast examination can monitor any abnormal changes in the breasts.
3. For women who have not yet reached menopause, the best time for examination is 3-5 days after menstruation. Breast hyperplasia is closely related to estrogen, which has minimal impact on the breasts when they are in a resting state. If there are any changes in breast tissue due to breast disease, they are more likely to be detected.
4. For women who have already reached menopause, they can choose any time for examination. If any abnormal changes are detected, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
