You are most welcome.

I would suggest doing monthly self-examintions of your breasts, after the end of your menstrual period, if you are not already doing so. . This may be more difficult because you have "lumpy breasts," but if there seems to something that feels different, or you notice a change in size of  the lump in the 3 O'clock position of your right breast (think of each breast as being the face of a clock), you can always go back for a recheck sooner than the 6-mth follow-up recommended.

Wishing you all the best,
bb

Hi,

As indicated in the IMPRESSION section, some nodules (lumps) in your breasts were seen in the utrasound. They appear to be benign (BI-RADS 3: Probably benign findings). Three of nodules appeared to be cysts (benign findings).

The radiologist's recommendation was to just have a follow-up ultrasound in 6 months, to monitor for any changes in another nodule, in your right breast..

Best wishes,
