Hi JennyPenny,

A very warm welcome to our forum.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to say what is causing this. The only way to find out is to see your GP as soon as you can. They will probably refer you to the breast clinic for investigation. Some people have naturally lumpy breasts, without having anything untoward. You mention that it feels like fibrous tissue - this could be a benign Fibroadenoma or another cyst. The 3 main tests at the breast clinic on a first visit are mammogram, ultrasound and biopsy. The first 2 can identify any suspicious lump and the biopsy can predict whether or not there is any cancer present. 

I sincerely hope that nothing untoward is found.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Hello Jenny, and thank you for posting.

I do not know what may be happening with your breasts, as we can not give a medical opinion. However, I can say there are many different breast conditions that are not cancer, that can happen and be diagnosed in breast tissue.

Do talk to your doctor about what you have noticed. They will assess and decide if you need to be further investigated.

Take care, and if you want to talk things through with the nurses then call 0808 800 4040. Lines are open mon-fri, 9-5.
