| | Talkback Q&A - Lelehan puting dan sindrom pra-haid – apakah penjelasannya? | Q Payudara sebelah kiri saya mengeluarkan cecair. Ia berlaku selama beberapa hari sebelum haid saya,dan apabila kedatangan haid,cecair tersebut tiada lagi. 2 minggu kemudian cecair ini keluar lagi di payudara sebelah kiri juga. Saya telah memeriksa payudara sendiri dan saya dapati tiada ketulan. Adakah ini merupakan tanda-tanda yang merbahaya? Saya belum berkahwin dan berumur 27 tahun. Sebelum ini saya mengalami ketegangan payudara sebelum haid tiba dan akan berakhir selepas pengeluaran haid. Saya juga rasa ketegangan payudara itu merupakan sindrom pra-haid. Saya harap Doktor dapat memberikan penjelasan Z 26 Jun 2004 A Jawapannya terpapar di http://www.radiologymalaysia.org/breasthealth/BM/PenyakitPayudara/kelainan.htm Kelainan payudara saudari yang berulang setiap bulan adalah kerana kitaran haid (hormon). Ia merupakan sesuatu yang agak “biasa” untuk ramai wanita.
Untuk lelehan puting pula (walaupun selalunya adalah disebabkan kelainan yang tidak merbahaya) adalah amalan yang baik kalau saudari jumpa doktor anda untuk pemeriksaan yang selanjutnya. Klinik payudara terpapar di http://www.radiologymalaysia.org/breasthealth/About/breastclinics.htm dan selalunya klinik payudara juga terdapat di hospital besar setiap ibunegeri di Malaysia. Pengarang

| | Talkback Q&A - Small dimple-like spots on my areola – do I have cancer? | Q I was recently looking at the breast cancer site, and came across a sign of breast cancer known as "dimpling". This worries me because on my areola there are small dimple like spots. They have been there for some time and I'm really scared I've got breast cancer, I'm 14 and I'm really scared. Please help. Gem 10 Mar 2004A Those little dimples and bumps on the areola is different from true dimpling of the skin. Please look at the pictures (they are graphic, so be warned). http://www.radiologymalaysia.org/breasthealth/About/howcanitell.htm You can expect the areola to have bumps - like white heads.
