There are lots of kinds of breast lumps, but not all are cancerous. Also, it would be unusual for it to happen in both breasts at once, especially at your young age. Ask your doctor just to be safe.

Their have been cases of young girls like you getting breast cancer but it is pretty rare. Most likey those lumps are fibroids or cysts… two common things that girls get who have a lot of breast tissue. Your best bet would be to ask your mom or ask the school nurse if she wouldn’t mind taking a look…. don’t be embarrassed women all have the same parts and it’s not good to worry about it all the time. You should get them checked out just to be safe. It’s ok to be worried but you should talk to someone who you trust… good luck!

It is possible, but the chances of a 14 year old getting breast cancer is almost as rare as winning the lottery or getting struck by lightning. Breast cancer, like any other cancer, develops over time. Obesity also does not contribute to breast cancer. As you age and if you still are overweight, then you are at higher risk for heart disease, & diabetes but it cannot cause breast cancer. Go to your doctor. He/she will check it out themselves & don’t feel embarrassed. It is good that you are noticing those kinds of things. As you get older, self breast exams will be SO important, because breast cancer is one of the top killers in women. The lumps are probably just breast tissue. Everyone has it. Yours are probably just more noticable because you are a little overweight. Try to exercise, and eat healthy & you probably won’t have to worry about diabetes & heart disease.

Good luck.

I dont think so but you will be at risk later on if you stay FAT.Im 38 and was diagnosed with MASTOPATHY and have some lumps in my breast which can be really painful,especially just before starting a period.My daughter of 10 has been diagnosed recently with LYMPHODENOPATHY which causes some lumps in and around her upper body,I thought she had cancer too so DONT WORRY.You must see a specialist right away,does your mum know? and dont forget you are in puberty so your body is changing all time and it might have something to do with it,take care and find out 100 procent allright.

Your breasts are perfectly normal for an adolescent girl. They are probably achy too, right? Normal. Read up on teenage breasts by beginning here. Then make yourself an expert by doing your own google search using key words like teen adolescent breasts lumps. Look in the articles you find for further key words to refine your search. Start with this one and stop worrying. Of course, if you find something that alarms you, check it out with your physician.

Cancer does not have age, every person at any age can get one. But there are lots of different not cancerous lumps. And since you have them from your puberty and they did not change their sizes and didn’t give you any trouble I don’t think that its a cancer. Actually you are still in puberty. But in any case a doctors appointment will be the best answer to your question
