No i dont' think so but you should see a doctor
no, it could just be a cyst. Does it move? if it does, its a cyst. Either way, you should make your doctor aware of it.

no but better get a mamogram test
NO! in fact, most lumps are benign (not cancerous) and can either be left alone or drained of fluid. More times than not it is just a cyst and can be treated easily, but still get it checked asap!
No not necessarily, my friend had one and it was just a cyst, which she had removed, but see your GP to set your mind at rest.

Not always but still get it checked by a Physician.
I have fiber cystic breast. meaning they are lumpy. And its hard to get a good reading for a mammogram. Got to the docs, most likely its just a cystic, some come and go and others can be removed.
Not always, but see a doctor to make sure.
not necessarily but is a sign of a visit to your doctor
No, i found a lump in my breast about five years ago and went to see the doc's who told me it was scar tissue. I was so relieved after the doc's even though i found it a bit embarrassing.
No, but go to a dr. and have it checked out to be sure. don't let it go unchecked.
Not necessarily. It could be a cyst, benign tumor or fatty tumor. If you're large breasted, it could actually be a swollen lymph node if closer to the axillary (armpit) region. However, why play Russian roulette with you health? Consult with you physician ASAP. Good luck!
No, You need to see a Dr. so they can do a biopsy to be sure that it is not cancer. Most likely it is just a cyst, but the only way to know for sure is to go to the Dr.
Good Luck and God Bless
The vast majority of breast lumps turn out to be benign [non-cancerous], specially if you're under 40 and have no family history of breast cancer. To be on the safe side, make an appointment with your doctor for a physical exam and an order for a baseline mammography. Also, do a breast self-exam monthly [wait about 7 days after your period stops to do this, because during menstruation your breasts may be sore or more sensitive]. If you notice any abnormality in breast size, have a discharge from your nipple, or notice any kind of discoloration or dimpling on the skin of your breast, contact your doctor immediately. These are some of the most common signs that a lump might be cancerous. Good luck, and hope that everything turns out to be OK.
