Is it likely for teenagers to get breast cancer ?

I've been reading up on this subject, and in most cases it explains about lumps on the outer sides of your breasts nearer the armpit, but the lump i've found recently was under the outer nipple. I'm really scared that it's breast cancer, although i'm aware it's more likely to be a cyst. Is it more likely to be breast cancer because its under the nipple ?Is it likely for teenagers to get breast cancer ?
No, it is extremely unlikely. Your chances of having breast cancer are almost zero. It is extremely rare for a teenager to have breast cancer - it's a disease largely associated with ageing, and 80% of people diagnosed with it are over 50.





Even in adult women, most breast lumps are not cancerous





It is likely to be hormonal, or it may be a cyst. But it's very, very unlikely to be cancer.





See your doctor and put your mind at rest.Is it likely for teenagers to get breast cancer ?
it is unlikely that you have breast cancer. get it checked out if your really worried, but i wouldnt worry too much.


i do the same thing to myself, i notice some minor thing


and have these thoughts running thru my mind..could it be this? could it be that?


ask a doctor, but its not likely you have cancer
it's highly unlikely in women under 40. your at a higher risk if its in your family. like the fist person says the pill can increase your chances but not by much at all. most women usually find lumps the size of a golf ball, that might put your mind at ease. but if your worried about anything like that just go to your doctor. don't worry about it though the stress of worry can make you over think a situation.
Unlikely. What you can do: avoid too small Bra's, avoid breast piercing, avoid the ';Pill';. Do exercise containing movement of your arms.
