Yes, but won't help: Yes it can, but mammogram cannot distinguish between cysts (fluid filled) and something solid as well as ultrasound does. So you would likely be referred for ultrasound anyway. Unless you have a family history of young breast cancers, starting mammograms at 40 is the current recommendation.

Mammography can be: performed, but it may not be necessary unless you are a BRCA carrier, or are otherwise at very high risk. Screening mammography should begin at age 40.
