Breast Cancer/Fibroadonema

Question
Three months ago I did U/S and a mass was found on my left breast at 5 o'clock suggesting Fibroadonema. I did U/S again after 3 months size of the mass was the same no change.I am 33 years old and want to conceive. I would be thankful if you let me know what to do. Do I need biopsy or not?

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Regards


Answer
An ultrasound guided needle biopsy probably should be so easy & simple to do that I see no reason why it should not have been done immediately as that would both have given you a very sure diagnosis and saved you worrysome time! So I suggest that you do that! Good luck!
