Q: i had lumps in my breast 3 years back.now again i have got lumps in other breast.is it a symptom of
Diana,
The lumps in your breasts are most likely benign cysts, especially if that was the case last time. It is always a good idea to get theses things checked out by a doctor, though.
Good luck and take good care-

Diana, some women have naturally lumpy breasts. And some develop lumpy breasts, a conditon called fibrocystic breast changes; it's often connected to your period. As Laurie said, you could simply have scattered have benign cysts. It's irritating, but up to 50% of women have these benign lumps. So get them checked out, but PLEASE don't panic about them being caused by cancer. If your previous experience with lumps was that they were benign, then probably these are, too. Good luck - PJH
