Answer
Dear Jennifer, I'm a Swede living in Sweden and English is not my first language. So PLEASE, when writing to me do not use acronyms/abbreviations or sms-style text as that will increase risks of misunderstandings and mistakes!
They may have to do with each other indirectly since they all are under hormonal influence! Unfortunately you will have to wait for the results. Please do keep me posted! If your breasts are fibrocystic mammography should ALWAYS be combined with ultrasound breast scans AND MRI breast scans! AND thin/fine needle aspiration biopsies and core needle biopsies when needed whenever anything is unclear. In your case endometrial biopsies are probably necessary too right now!
