A member asked:

Had repeat breast core biopsy done, it came back as the same as the previous one-benign breast tissue with lactation changes.are two biopsies accurate?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably: You probably need a consult with a breast surgeon, but i would say that two biopsies of the same location that have come back benign are probably accurate with regard to what is going on in your breast.
