A member asked:
At what age do people get micro calcifications in their breast? do they ever turn into cancer if benign?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unclear question: Calcification in breast is not normal. Calcification does not turn into cancer, cancers get calcification. Talk to the doctor who ordered the imaging. Wish you good health!
