Fibroadenomas

Hey, I was wondering if anyone has had a Fibroadenoma. About 2 months ago I found a lump in my right breast, I had a scan and a biopsy and it was confirmed Fibroadenoma and I was told not to worry about it that it can disappear on its own. Fast forward 2 months it's still there and I think it's growing, although becuase iv not paid much attention to it after finding out it wasn't anything serious I'm now thinking it's just my mind. I wondered if anyone who has had this, did it go away on its own? Or did it grow and be removed? I don't want to go back to the doctors when I know that it isn't anything to worry about I'm 26 so I feel that when I go in they are a bit dismissive because of my age, I know it's nothing serious but it is a bit of a pain :) sorry if that makes no sense :)
