do a breast check every night in shower or before bed, my mother told me this, feel for lumps or out of the ordinary skin. If so, tell your father [if ur closer to him] you have some issues with your chest and u feel it needs to be checked out.

First of all you are never too young to do self breast exams, plently of young women have found lumps early cancer detectionis the best way to survive it..anyway do it in the the shower start around your nipple rubbiing in a circular motion and move outward..what you feel on one breast you should feel on the other don't panic is it feels kind of bumpy you may have what they call fibrcystic breast tissue..if you search self breast exams on the internet you should find some good info
