I feel lumps in my breasts. Do I have breast cancer?

 
I’m 13, and I feel lumps in my breasts. Do I have breast cancer?
 
Rest assured that you’re probably very healthy—breast cancer almost never occurs in teens. Rest double-assured because you’re obviously knowledgeable about your bod, and that will keep you abreast (pardon the pun) of your health issues.

What you’re most likely feeling are some of the many small glands that are naturally in your breast tissue, explains Dr. Elizabeth G. Stewart, gynecologist and author of The V Book. But just one lump is probably a harmless cyst from a breast duct that’s temporarily plugged with fluid. This usually goes away on its own.

Just to be safe, ask your doctor to check it out.

Hey chica, i hope it's not. If you're really worried ask your 'rents to take you to the hospital. Better safe than sorry. Smile

Hey girl! It's totally possible for you to have a cyst on your leg. There are different places you can have cysts and they can be found on your legs, too.

Ok so ive had a lump in my breast for about 3 weeks now and i really want to tell my mom but i dont know how. Please help!!!!!!




Hey babe, most of the lumps are just fat or other things that are nothing to worry about. But it is always best to get these things checked out by a doc, just to be safe but I'm sure you're fine!
