A lump especially one that is rock hard-or nipple discharge is a sign.

Check for lumps, lumps can be benign or malignant, meaning non-cancerous or cancerous respectively. If you can feel a lump that moves around when you try to move it with your fingers then it's not cancer, it's a fibroadenoma. A cancerous lump is one that does not move from its location and is not painful. Check if there's pitting, like an orange peel texture in any area of your breast. If there is, then you should consider seeing your doctor. Best to have a mammogram.

I love to read especially about health and so far all I've read about is a lump is a sure fire sign of breast cancer. I could stand to be corrected if there is in fact another sign. I also know that hereditary is another way to know you are in line to get it, as well.
