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.

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!

mod!
is there anyway to maske your boobs grow quicker? because my boobs barely fit into a 32A bra and i want bigger boobs. HELP!

 

Unfortunately there's no way to make your boobs grow faster, but just give it some time! Your body is still growing, and your boobs are most likely not done yet either.

I was soooooooooooo freaked out when I found lumps in my boobs that I went to my mom. She taught me the breast cancer test and I stopped being so worried. But now that they've grown I'm afraid too wear a bathing suit. Whatshould i do?

I had to go to the doctor for those *lumps* on my breast. EWWY. She was squeezing them and poking them. I can't imagine going to the femals peepee doctors. EWWY. PERVY DOCTORs!

Take the stairs more than once. When you’re at home, run up and down the stairs three or four times before heading to your room. It’s a sneaky way to stay active.
