Accessory breasts, in layman’s terms, are redundant breasts. However, they are not extensions of normal breasts, but separate structures. They are a congenital developmental abnormality. Below is the reason why accessory breasts are formed and how to reduce accessory breasts. Welcome to read.

How are accessory breasts formed?

During the embryonic period, there are 6 to 8 pairs of mammary glands on the two lines from the armpit to the groin. , except for a pair on the chest, the rest of it has degenerated. In a small number of patients, the mammary glands do not degenerate or have incomplete degeneration and cause accessory breasts. It can occur on one or both sides, usually in the front or under the armpits. It can also occur on the upper and lower sides of normal breasts, abdomen, groin, outer thighs and other parts of the chest.

Pathological causes

Polymastia is a congenital developmental abnormality. When the fetus is 9 mm long, 6 to 8 pairs of papillary local thickenings occur from the ectodermal epithelial tissue on both sides of the ventral side, from the axilla to the inguinal line (breast line), which is the primordial base of the breast. Under normal circumstances, except for one pair of breasts, the rest of the primordia degenerate and disappear before birth. If there is no degeneration, accessory mammary glands will form, forming multiple nipples or multiple breasts. If there is glandular tissue below the nipple, it is called complete accessory breast; while those with only nipples and no breast substance are called accessory nipples. Some have no nipple protrusions, only symmetrical localized depressions or small areas of skin pigmentation on both sides.

Accessory breast is a congenital developmental abnormality, which usually affects the appearance if it is too large. However, the lesion rate of accessory breast containing normal breast tissue is higher than that of normal breast tissue.

Morphological classification

1. Complete accessory breast: nipple formation and breast tissue. Complete accessory breast milk can be affected by endocrine hormones like the mammary gland, such as estrogen, progesterone and prolactin, etc. Therefore, it can undergo cyclic changes with the onset of menstruation. The increase is more obvious during pregnancy, and lactation may occur during lactation. .

2. Incomplete accessory breasts: those with only nipples but no breast substance, or only symmetrical localized depressions on both sides or skin pigmentation without nipples. Small in size, usually only accessory nipples, less affected by endocrine hormones.

Clinical manifestations

Accessory breasts vary in size, some are small, some are larger, and clinical symptoms vary from person to person. It is generally neither painful nor itchy. Some may experience swelling or pain before menstruation, but the swelling and pain disappear after menstruation. Accessory breasts can also secrete milk during lactation, but accessory breasts without nipples mainly show local swelling, pain and bulging.

In addition to feeling bloated before menstruation, the lump also has symptoms of tenderness and enlargement. The above symptoms are obvious during adolescence, lactation, and menopause.
