A member asked:
Breast cancer at 14. is it possible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: At 14, the most common breast tumor would be a juvenile (giant) fibroadenoma. This is a rapidly growing benign tumor which can get pretty large. Occasionally, adolescents can also get phyllodes tumors, even though they are unusual. If you have concerns about the diagnosis please get a second opinion.
