Repeat in 6 months: I recommend following up with a breast specialist who can examine you and review the films. Birads-3 means there is a benign (noncancerous) finding that should be repeated in 6 months to make sure it is stable.

Likely benign: Birads 3 means a breast lesion or finding is likely benign (> 98% chance). I would follow the recommendations in your reports.

BIRADS 3: means probably benign, less than 2% chance of malignancy. Usually these lesions are managed with short interval follow up.
