Is this a new symptom for your or do your breasts get lumpy before you menstruate? Do you have any other symptoms?
I would keep a journal & see how your breast tissue changes, your breasts can be lumpy & sensitive depending where you are in your cycle. I would make an apt. with your doc., to make sure everything is o.k. with your body.

Your breasts are made up of small little globules of fat and then muscle underneath. At your age I feel safe to say that there is nothing to worry about. Have you ever seen the fat on a chicken...the little globes of fat. That is exactly what breast fat looks like. All women have it, especially if their breasts are full. It's a healthy thing. However, if you ever feel anything that is like a hard pebble underneath the surface of your breast, please see your doctor. Always remember, the best time to check your breasts for "real" lumps is right after your period. Your breasts are not as tender at that time and you will be able to do a more thorough examination on yourself. Start at the nipple and areola and work your way out in a slow massaging fashion clockwise. Get to know how your breasts feel and SHOULD feel. I myself, had a lump removed several years ago and it was because I found it during a normal routine monthly self-examination. It felt like the size of a small pea underneath the skin and it was hard (really hard) like a little pebble. I really don't think your thing is anything to worry about. All the best!

Its normal. One thing to remember is our breasts feel different at different times of the month. One to two weeks before our periods start our breasts may become more tender, swollen and you may feel more lumps in your breasts. One thing to remember is that caffeine can cause more swelling and pain in our bodies( both in our breasts and cramps during our periods). So if you consume caffeine your body may tell you about it.

Her red blood cells are not attacking it. The only way it would be getting smaller is if she is getting chemo. Stage 2 has a 80-90% 5 year survival rate depending on which stage 2 she has.

They are breast tumors or sists, more than likely they are binine but you should get them checked out by a doctor. They may say there are none but ask them to do a mamogram to besure. Also if they recomend to do surgery to remove them, do it! It hurts much less then a breat byopsy. Please don't wait till your 18, like I did to get them taken care of. They will grow bigger, and when they do, they hurt.

At yor age i wouldnt worry about it too much. I would still check outyour GYN DR.
Another thing.... how much caffine do you drink.. that can play a big role in it.
Are they senstive. if so that's a good thing. usually anything cancerous would go unnoticed.
