A member asked:
I need to know when to see a doctor with fibrocystic breast?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Once yearly: A clinical breast examination once yearly is recommended along with an annual mammogram. Women with fibrocystic breast are at slightly higher risk for developing breast cancer. So an annual breast physical examination is advised. This can be done by a family physician or a gynecologist.
