Top 4 Symptoms of Breast Fibroadenoma!
The 4 Main Symptoms of Breast Fibroadenoma are very important for the correct diagnosis of Breast Fibroadenoma . In addition, Breast Fibroadenoma is a benign tumor that often appears in women under the age of 30 as a hard lump that does not cause pain or discomfort, similar to a marble.
Breast Fibroadenoma is usually up to 3 cm and is easily identified during menstruation or pregnancy due to the increased production of hormones that increase its size. Breast Fibroadenoma rarely becomes cancer and, in most cases, does not require specific treatment, disappearing after menopause.

Causes of Breast Fibroadenoma: The causes that lead a woman to develop Breast Fibroadenoma are still not completely understood, but it is believed that they are related to reproductive hormones. Breast Fibroadenoma can get bigger during pregnancy or hormone therapy, and it can shrink after menopause as hormone levels in the body decrease.
Main Symptoms of Breast Fibroadenoma: Breast Fibroadenoma is usually an individual lump, but about 10-15% of women have various lumps that can affect both breasts. The node can be:
The nodules have well-defined and smooth boundaries. They can grow in size, especially during pregnancy. Breast Fibroadenoma often gets smaller after menopause (if a woman is not taking hormone replacement therapy).
As you can see, the symptoms of breast cancer are different from Fibroadenoma of the Breast . A Breast Fibroadenoma feels like a marble inside the chest during self-examination. You may have one or more Breast Fibroadenoma .
Breast cyst and Breast Fibroadenoma can be painful, but breast cancer is rare, even if the pain does not exclude the possibility of breast cancer.
Chest pain accompanied by redness, warmth, or nipple discharge may indicate an infection (secretions may also indicate breast cancer or a benign tumor).
Other causes of chest pain can be injuries or swelling . It should be remembered that breast pain that does not originate in the breast includes various causes such as:
- Tietze syndrome ( intercostal pain under the breast that may be related to excessive muscle tension)
- Cervical disc herniation
- rib fracture,
- Mondor’s disease ( pain in the lower part of the breast from an inflammation of a vein within the breast tissue)
- Angina,
- gallbladder inflammation,
- Hiatus hernia,
- Peptic ulcer.
Breast Fibroadenoma that occurs during adolescence is called Juvenile Breast Fibroadenoma . It can quickly swell to about 10 cm in diameter.
Treatment for Breast Fibroadenoma: Even if the result indicates a Breast Fibroadenoma , it does not necessarily need to be removed. Depending on physical symptoms, family history, and personal concerns, the person and their doctor may decide whether or not to have it removed.
Fibroadenoma of the breast that does not grow and is not cancerous can be carefully monitored with clinical breast exams and imaging tests such as mammograms and ultrasounds. The decision to have a Fibroadenoma removed from the breast usually depends on the following:
- if it changes the natural shape of the breast
- if it causes pain
- whether the person is concerned about developing cancer
- whether the person has a family history of cancer
- if the biopsy results are doubtful
