Ok, so I am curious about this lump that I have found in my breast. It is in my right breast, medial to the sternum. It is freaking me out. My breasts look fine, no dimples, orange peels, inverted nipples, no armpit soreness etc...I just feel it when I palpate, but I sometimes have to "dig deep" to feel it. Other times, I feel it easily, like if I lay on my tummy or something.(im a B cup-girls arent that large) I noticed that it could be menstrual, but I have been on Depo for the last 3 years. I am off now, and hoping my body will get back into its normal cycle. As gross as it is, I miss it. I am overweight, but I am working on that part. -sigh-
Thanks,
Amanda :)

Seek medical opinion. It will be investigated. Usual routine would be mameogram.....ultra sound and needle biopsy. Seek doctor and investigation real soon as this is a problem that needs an answer. If a problem is found then the earlier it is treated the more the result will be positive for the treatment plan.

Please go see your doctor NOW. It could be nothing, but it could be cancer. My mom was only 35 when she had breast cancer, and the doctor told she had probably had the tumor for about 3 years before she came in. So young women can get it too. Any time you feel a lump or notice some abnormality in your breast you should get it checked out, just to be on the safe side.

Well, I would play it safe and see a doctor. Cancer can be a serious thing, and it will pay to get it checked even if it is a false alarm.
By the way, cancer doesn't care how old you are...

Yes it is possible, you need to see a Dr right away and have it checked. It may only be a cyst, but it is better to find out and know for sure.

Everyone -could- have breast cancer. Guys can even have breast cancer.
The only way for you to know is to have it examined by a doctor.

Thats an early age and you probably don't have it, but I suggest you get tested to make sure.
