Breast Lump
Lumpiness or lump in the breast is a common problem in most women in the mensturating age.
Women experience hormonal surges with each menstural cycle and these cause breast to swell and decrease. Over the years these cyclical changes can cause permanent changes in the breast tissues leading to alteration of breast texture – Either lumpiness or frank lump. Cysts, fibrocystic changes and fibroadenoma are some of the resultant changes seen under microscope.
These changes are experienced by the patient as vague altered texture or as a frank lump in the breast.
