What happens during the disease - fibrosclerosis of breast
Fibrosclerosis of the breast is a condition in which the breast tissues become hardened due to the formation of excessive collagen and other fibrous proteins. this is caused by an imbalance in the hormones estrogen and progesterone, which lead to an increase in the production of fibrous proteins. this leads to the formation of scar tissue that replaces the normal breast tissue, resulting in the hardening and thickening of the breast. additionally, the thickening of the breast tissue can also cause the development of cysts and lumps.
