• After turning twenty, every woman should perform a monthly breast self-examination.
• All women should begin annual screening mammograms at age forty.
• If there is a family history of breast cancer, annual screening mammograms should start at age thirty-five.
• Any woman, at any age, who feels any change in the breast area should seek the advice of a specialist surgeon.

• Causes: The exact causes of breast pain are not fully understood, but some studies suggest that a deficiency in certain fatty acids in a woman's body may contribute. Changes in hormones can make breast tissue sensitive, and the pain may affect one or both breasts, sometimes extending to the armpits. These pains typically start a week before menstruation and gradually subside with its onset, often accompanied by warmth and congestion in the breasts.

• Solution: If this pain recurs, it is advisable to consult a breast surgeon for an examination and to determine the best treatment. In most cases, reassurance may be sufficient. It is recommended to avoid smoking, drinking coffee, and consuming foods high in carbohydrates and chocolate.

It is important to ensure that the bra size is appropriate. Surgical intervention is usually unnecessary, but if there is a blockage in the milk ducts, the doctor may perform additional tests such as a mammogram or ultrasound.

• If a lump is detected through examination and tests, a sample of the lump should be taken using a specialized needle to study its type and characteristics.

• Any woman can develop a fibroadenoma after puberty, typically between the ages of 15 and 30. In some cases, the woman may not be aware of the fibroadenoma, and this can vary depending on her weight and the size of the tumor.
• A fibroadenoma is often referred to as a "breast mouse" due to its ease of movement within the breast.
• Sometimes, there can be more than one fibroadenoma, and it can affect both breasts simultaneously.
• It is diagnosed through a triple assessment, which includes a clinical examination, imaging (such as a mammogram or ultrasound), and a biopsy of the tumor for histological examination.
• Fibroadenomas are usually benign and not dangerous; however, they should be monitored periodically to ensure there is no change in size or nature.
• If the fibroadenoma causes pain or discomfort, or if there is any doubt about its benign nature, the doctor may recommend surgical removal.
• Treatment options can vary based on the size, location, and symptoms of the fibroadenoma, including regular monitoring or surgical intervention if necessary.
