What could be fibroadenoma found in mammogram?
Patient: Hello i am 35 and i recently carried out a mammogram and was diagnosed with a fibroadenoma. I also carried out a breast ultrasound and nothing was seen. I feel a dull aching pain which comes on and off. I do not have a family history of cancer. Please advise Doctor: Do not worry fobroadenomas are common in this age and the pain usually corelates with your mentstrual cycle as the effects of harmones causes the on and off pain. It is a benign non cancerous conditionIf there are multiple or complex fibroadenomas you are at an increased risk of breast cancer of 2 times compared to a woman with normal breasts.Simple fibroadenomas are nothing to be worried about.
