I have had a mastectomy and want to have reconstructive breast surgery soon. I've heard about a new procedure called the DIEP flap and want to know if it would be a good option for me.
My 15-year-old daughter has one breast that is larger than the other. She is concerned that they will not even out. What can we do to check into this?
I am 38, with a family history of breast cancer (my mother died from it). When I was checking my breasts, I noticed a discharge from both breasts—one discharging white fluid and the other clear fluid. Is this cause for concern?
I am 52 years old and have not had a period for three months. Now, my breasts hurt so bad I can hardly sleep on them. They're sore and tender all the time. In the past, they have been sore right before my period for a couple days, but never for this long. Do I need to worry about anything, or is this probably menopause setting in?
I have large breasts and fibrocystic disease and have had fine needle aspiration. Could the dense tissue from the fibrocystic disease hide cancer in regular screening mammograms?
I am 5'3" and weigh almost 200 pounds. I have heavy, elongated breasts. I've never been able to wear a shirt without a bra, and it's difficult to work out. I would like a breast reduction operation. Do I have to lose weight? What would be the ideal weight for this surgery?
My menstrual cycles are regular, but my breasts get really sore for about 10 days before. Lately I've noticed that when my breasts are sore, the lymph node under one of my arms swells up. Is this any cause for concern? I'm 22 years old.
