I had a fibroadenoma in my right breast at age 18 to somewhere in my 20's... It was checked periodically by my GP(s) and I consulted on one occasion with a breast surgeon. It has since been resorbed by my body - gone.
Mine was a similar size and very mobile. They are sometimes called a "breast mouse" because of the way they move about. It's a collection of extra tissue and is nothing to worry about.
Hopefully you have had yours checked out now and everything is ok?
I have had a Fibroadenoma too. I has a mammogram, ultrasound and then FNA to make sure. I still have the lump, only time I saw a surgeon I was pregnant and knew I would be BF so I said if it will need to come out it can wait till my baby making days are over so it is still there, sometimes I can feel it by just running my hand over it over times I have to feel around for it.
I really hope everything is okay for you. It is such a scary time waiting for answers.
Thank you so much ladies for thinking of me. I unfortunately have not had my ultrasound yet so at the moment I have no news to share (no news is good news right?) The lump is still there and its unchanged. I saw my normal GP not the one that gave me a referral and she said the lump feels like a swollen gland and has sent me of for a pile of BTs also to test for a number of things. I'll have these results back before the results of my scan I guess.
All I can say is, I have been through this to and so did one of my friends and we both had fibroadenomas too.. In most instances, breast lumps are benign as someone else has said so try not to worry too much about it at this stage, no use worrying before you have to, although I know how hard it is not to.. Many women have something called fibrocystic breast disease which is lumps that flare up at different stages of the cycle, its quite common.. so hopefully at best its just a blocked duct, and at worst might just be one of those fibro lumps..

I hope everything is okay. So so scary.
