Common Breast Changes
    Posted: 11/09/2005
Introduction

Breast changes occur in almost all women. In fact, most of these changes are not cancer (these changes are called benign).

Common breast changes include:

  • Lumpiness
  • Single lumps
  • Nipple discharge

Changes can also happen monthly, due to your period.
