Mensus and extra lumps in breasts

[mommy2boys]

I'm curious I know we have tons of Lymph nodes throughout our bodies that swell when were fighting infections and so forth. Is it common to have swollen "lumps" for a better word around breast area during period time?

I have lumps under axillary area and one on lower side towards the middle that feels different than the other side.

Yes-I am seeing a doctor next week but was wondering if anyone has experienced or knows what I'm inquiring about.

With me I have never had any lumps. I'm glad you are going to the Dr. Make sure you MAKE your Dr. take it seriously. My aunt went in for a lump and her Dr. told her that it was just a normal lump, so she went in for a second opionion and it ended up being cancer. I'm sure you are fine, our bodies will do strange things during AF. but just make sure they don't just brush you off.
Keep us informed with what the results are. Oh yeah...my sister gets strange lumps in her breasts every year or so and it is always nothing.
good luck

do those lumps come and go through your cycle?

When I fight a cold or something...i get lumps under my armpits and around my ears and throat. For now i'm saying thats normal if you're sick because there are glands all over your body. I'm not sure about the breast but it sounds like it could be possible. But we'll leave that up to your doctor. Hope all goes well and feel better!
