How likely is breast cancer at 22?

Hey everyone.

I'm not actually concerned about breast cancer exactly but I do get very self conscious about my breasts since for as long as I can remember my right has always been bigger than the left and more rounded. It got a tad bigger when my dog head butted me there. I don't think it's a big difference because no one else can notice it except me and I fit in my bras fine.

I'm 22 and everyone says breast cancer is extremely unlikely or low in women my age so I was just wondering if that really is true.

Thank you

    I think it is rare to get breast cancer at such a young age. However it's not impossible so it's definitely worth getting checked out by a professional if you are worried and think something may be going on. It's always better to be safer than sorry.

    Hope you're ok.
