My breasts are lumpy. Do I have cancer?

 
Whenever I read stuff about doing self breast exams they always say to make sure that there are no lumps, but when I feel my breasts they are always really lumpy. Do I have breast cancer or something?

 

Not to worry, babe, what you’re feeling in your breasts is probably nothing to worry about. Breast cancer is extremely rare in teens. The lumps you’re feeling are most likely related to your growth and development.

 

More than half of all women have breast lumps called fibroadenomas. These are small, noncancerous cysts that tend to change in size according to your period. If you have them, they’re usually easier to feel just before your period.

 

Still worried? Don’t fret. Give your doctor a call and set up an appointment for a routine examination. If your breasts start to feel different between exams, or you’ve noticed something new, getting checked out is a good precaution.

Today I found out one of my best friends has brain cancer. She said its not bad and she'll probably be okay, but I'm worried about her. Does she have a good chance of surviving, or is it slim? She's almost fifteen and pretty healthy

 

hey! I am so sorry to hear about that. I can't say what the status of her health might be, since i don't really know much about it, if she seems to be dealing with it ok, why don't you ask her? Good luck!

my friend was playing in the pool with me and by mistake, she squeezed my boob. do i have breast cancer?




Hey! the only way to really feel reassured is to talk to your doctor about all of these questions Smile To be honest, that's what we mods just have to tell you guys when you come to us with any health concerns. You may very well be fine, but since we're not doctors and we can't even see you face to face, it's not for us to tell you what's fine and what isn't. You know your body. Trust your instincts and talk to your doc!

Frown i'm so nervous about it starting soon! 3) I have bumps (acne?) on my bicep. Is it acne? PLEASE HELP!!!!!




Hey girl, 1) they're signs your breasts are growing. No worries: all girls that age have 'em. 2) Periods are hard to predict, but you're getting close to yours. Be prepared with pads. 3) It depends. It could be a bug bite or a pimple. Does it itch?

BIG HUGE PROBLEM.
A while ago I bought two bras with my friend without my mom knowing. I felt so weird asking her so I just went with my own money and bought two myself. I thought know problem right? WRONG, When I used my sisters bag to pack my clothes because we were going to California I brought the two bras. Then when we got home and unpacked I left the two bras in the bag! She took it with her. She doesn't live here so I don't know what to do without telling my mom! Help!




Hey girl,

Who cares if mom finds out? You're growing up and you'll need the support of bras eventually so, if you bought them recently for that, that's your personal choice! Just tell her you think you left some clothes in your sister's bag. She'll ask what they were, so just casually say "I think a couple bras I bought before the trip, ugh!" Once mom knows, she'll help you get them back. I know it might seem awkward or nerve-wracking right now, but I promise you this isn't that big of a deal!

MOD MOD MOD MOD!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
So my boobs are getting really big and my mom has bought me a few bras. The problem is... These bras don't have cups!!!!! I really need a cuped or padded bra because even with my regular bra you can see thought my shirt!!! At the moment I'm wearing a non padded bra and a tang top and shirt to cover up but... Wearing layers in the summer gets sweaty! I really want a padded bra but I don't know how to tell my mom!!!!! Please help!!!! Thanks!!!!!!




Hey girl, just tell your mom what you told me. Trust me, she's not going to judge. I know it may seem really embarrassing and like a big deal, but it's really not. Don't sweat it too much -- she wears padded bras herself so she understands the importance of being covered.

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.
