mole on breast since age 13

mole on breast since age 13

I am 33 yrs old healthy woman. I have a small brown mole (like a small nipple but size of a small pencil eraser) on the lower side of my left breast since I was 12-13 years of age. It's still there and hasn't changed in shape or size. There is no discharge either and there have been no lumps either until now. Am I prone  to breast cancer as I age?

Hi,
Skin on the breast is like skin anywhere on the body.  As we age, we tend to develop more freckles and moles and other skin discoloration.Since you had this mole for so long,I don't think that you should be worrying about cancer.  When examining your skin, it is important to check if the mole is smooth or looks jagged,notched or irregular.A visit to a dermatologist would be a good idea to better evaluate this mole.
Best wishes..
