... I just treat it no different than getting a pap smear - It's just a part of a woman's life & looking after herself without getting yourself all worried about it.
Sadly to answer your question, myself & SIL both had the lump at the back wall cavity. No where near a surface
the neighbour lady next to my dh's parents just found she has breast cancer and told every woman she knew to get checked, regardless of age... I was going to start a thread but found this! Thank you!
as with amysarah - mine have always been lumpy. had a "breast check" type thing not long after ds was born... she didn't mention anything. Could the lumps that I have be nasty, but just feel like normal lumps? I'm not worried - but if I was that type of person, just thinking that could flip someone out!
I don't have "lumps" as such. Its more just that there is so much stuff that makes up a breast, I wouldn't know what is normal and what is not. The link that Dach provided is helping me learn about my breasts and to familiarise myself with what is normal and therefore will be able to notice any changes in future.
I did my first breast check last night and just as Manta said, because I am on CD6 my breasts were a lot softer and nowhere near as lumpy as they would be later in my cycle.
My grandmother died of breast cancer. My mum,aunt and sis have all found lumps but they were all ok. Me i have found nothing but i get worried when my boobs get sore.I am not sure if its the muscle and the bra's not right? Ive never been checked by the dr but i have to get a referral so may ask.
my boobs have been really tender the past few days... and when i woke up this morning, for some reason i felt my left boob on the side closest to my arm.... it felt abit hard.. it went away and comes back now and then.... most the time before AF my boobs get tender but not this tender my right boob is just tender no hardness in that
So i'm a little concerned
Hi Retrogal - please report ANY breast changes to your doctor - the vast majority of breast changes will be harmless but you don't want to risk that eeny tiny percentage that it's not. I had a mastectomy recently and at one of my appts I heard the breast surgeon talking about another patient she had to get special permission to operate on because she was SIXTEEN. So it can happen at any age. Your dr will probably examine the area and may order an ultrasound or other tests to confirm everything's ok. It could be something like a cyst or whatever but you won't know until you get it checked out.
