Most breast lumps are benign (non-cancerous).
All women have lumpy breasts: many lumps or nodules that women find are areas of normal breast tissue which can become more prominent just before a period.
Lumpy breasts used to be called fibrocystic disease or fibroadenosis. It is now realised that lumpy breasts are not diseased breasts but are normal.
Lumps are common, and the majority are not cancerous.
Nevertheless, if you find a lump in your breast, you should make an appointment and get it checked by a doctor.

Breast cancer is usually a painless lump.
Do not wait.
Go to the dr immediately to rule out breast cancer.
Most likely they will do a breast exam and feel the lump.
They will do a biopsy on the lump to look at the cells and see if it is cancer.
Don't wait. Breast cancer is highly curable if caught early and taken care of fast.

Monitor it closely for any changes. If you're that insecure about testing pick up a self test flyer/find breast self-exams online.
I've had experience with women that didnt want to be tested, believe me you're much better off not risking it.

Have it checked out right away by a doctor. You do need to have further testing. This is very important.

I would contact the doctor immediately and be scheduled for a mammogram.

You should be worried if the lump starts getting progressively bigger.
