Latley my breats have been sore & lumpy. They feel hard to the touch, i'm 15 & scared to go to the Dr. Advice?

I have had this happen before, when i was really stressed and they slowly felt normal again over time. But i had to wait a few months for that to happen. I am terrified to go to the doctor and especially of getting a mammogram. I don't know what the chances of me having brest cancer are, and I don't know what to do about this.Latley my breats have been sore %26amp; lumpy.

It's unlikely that you have breast cancer 'cause it normally happens to older women. also it may just be 'cause they're growing, i use to get sore breast before they grew abit. talk to your mum she may have had similar experinces. If your worried then ring your doctor and see what they say and if they should think you should come in. Good luck :)Latley my breats have been sore %26amp; lumpy.

You're terrified of going to the doctor but you think people over the internet will have all the answers. Okay.





At the end of the day, the doctor is the only person who will be able to tell you what's wrong. They've seen hundreds and thousands of breasts so there's no need to be scared due to that, and at the end of the day, you can't be scared of something if it's something you want to know.
Are you on your period? Sometimes when girls get their periods they get really tender breasts. That could be it.





One thing you should really be doing is learning how to do a self breast exam. You need to know what your boobs feel like, so then when something turns up and it feels different, you know you should get it looked at. But that's something that's really important you need to learn about. You could talk to yoru mom about this, since she's a woman too. You could watch this, as well, as its got some good info.

Otherwise, stop being so afraid of the doctor! The doctor is someone who is there to help you. Especially if you did have something wrong, if you did go in and get it checked out.. and you caught it in an early stage of development, it could be cured, or you could get medication to fend it off whilest in it's early stages. Right?!
Lumpy can be normal in a growing person. However you should see a Doctor or even a school nurse and see if its something that should be tested further. Its better to deal with something early rather than wait and have a major problem.





There are a variety of harmless conditions that can cause lumps.
it's totally normal to have sore breasts when you're stressed, or right before you start your period. But if your breasts are lumpy then you probably need to see a doctor.. I wouldn't risk letting it get worse, just in case it is cancer. So if i were you I would see a doctor and see what they think. good luck :)
Are you close to having your period? My boobs always hurt a few days before and during my period.





Just see a doctor. He'll give you great advice and make you feel better. Better than the internet can.
Go to the Doctor.





You need to see a Doctor.





Even if you don't want to.





You need to at least talk to a Doctor.
Call your doctor. She may or may not want to see you.
It could be your period coming.


But you should really still go to the doctor.


I hope things are ok!


Good luck :)
