I'm just 15 years old n just about an hour
ago a have discovered a lump on my left
breast. Am I not too young to have breast
cancer? Help me please because I am
freaking out about this because I also
read somewhere that women that grow lumps
on their breasts at an early age are twice
as likely to have breast cancer when
they're older. Is that true? I need your
help. Please tell me what to do. :oops:

Nodules are very common especially before
getting period in some women due to
hormonal changes in the body...This is
most likely to be your situation as you
are very young and liable to this. If
this is the case, it should be gone in a
few days....I suggest to keep palpating
yourself everyday and if it is still there
in 4-5 days tops go see a specialist.
