I want to start using birth control pills but I have a fiber on the right side of my breast.

Hi,

I am 20 years old and when I was 18 years old the doctor found this small lump on my right breast.  It's really small, I can't find it on my own.  When the doctors check my breast and they find the lump it hurts.  I got a sonogram done twice but it was just to monitor if there was any growth and there wasn't.  The doctor just told me that it's just a fiber ball and that a lot of young girls get them.  But that I should monitor it.  I want to start taking birth control pills (ortho tri-cyclen lo) but I don't know if that will be a risk.  

Thank you,
Sindee

Hi,

It would be best not to take any oral contraceptive pills and if you do so, you should first consult your breast specialist and OBG.

In any case, I think this is too young a age for you to be starting any OCP medications - do discuss all the side effects with your doctor and then decide about starting them.

Let us know what your doctor advises and if you have any more doubts.

Hope this helps.

Regards.
