The patient’s age, height, weight, educational status, marital status, and occupation were recorded in all subjects.

The sternal notch to nipple distance (SNND) was measured to determine whether there was breast sagging.

In these women, drinking more than 6 cups of tea a day (OR: 2.15, CI 1.32–3.5), smoking at least 10 cigarettes a day (OR: 2.94, CI 1.78–4.83), and drinking alcohol at least once a week (OR: 2.1, CI 1.12–3.91) were found to be important factors that increased the risk of mastalgia. As a result, it has been found that severe mastalgia complaints cause by obesity, sagging breasts, never giving birth, unemployment anxiety, regular smoking, alcohol use, and excessive tea consumption.Bülent ÇomçalıServet KocaozBuket Altun ÖzdemirÖmer ParlakBirol KorukluoğluNature PortfolioarticleMedicineRScienceQENScientific Reports, Vol 11, Iss 1, Pp 1-7 (2021)
