Consultation with a mammologist

Breast health is an integral part of women's health. Among oncological diseases, breast cancer ranks first in women. Aside from oncology, women may experience discomfort, unpleasant, and painful sensations in the breast area due to a number of conditions such as mastopathy, mastitis, cysts, etc.

The "Women's Health" direction of the medical network "Dobrobut" includes examination and consultation with a mammologist. Women over 45 years old are recommended to undergo a complete annual mammographic examination of the breasts, which includes ultrasound, mammography, and a consultation with a specialist. Women under 45 years old are advised to undergo breast ultrasound and a mammologist examination, and if necessary, the doctor will prescribe additional diagnostic procedures.

You should see a mammologist if:

• You have discovered a lump or retraction in the area of the breast or nipple
• There is pain or redness of the breast skin,
• Nipple discharge has occurred,
• The shape of the breasts has changed,
• There is discomfort in the axillary area.

During the examination, the mammologist will review the medical history, inquire about complaints, and conduct a physical examination. Instrumental diagnostics are performed at the doctor's recommendation for an additional fee.

Based on the data obtained, the doctor will establish or refute the diagnosis and provide recommendations regarding lifestyle, frequency of diagnostics, or treatment.
