Yes it is def. the age for Mammograms! I have been getting regular mammos since I was 35. My OB is very proactive. :) I am due for my next in January so not too far off.
I can't express to women enough that it would be better to get it checked than to wait. Then you would know for sure and not have to worry. Isn't it time for your mamograms to start anyways?
Thanks very much for your response. Actually I have been through a few cycles with this - and no change as far as I can tell. I do see the doctor again in 6mos, would it be reasonable to just monitor for the next 6mos?
TIA.
Dear OhNelly2, Just by feel it is difficult to determine whether a lump is a fluid-filled cyst or solid tissue. An ultrasound is a test used for determining whether an area is fluid filled or solid. If this area is changing and/or causing you concern you may want to be checked by your doctor.
