Had symptoms over the past year that make me worry it could be breast cancer - but how likely would it be for an 18 yr old girl? nan & her sis had it

Highly unlikely: Although it is highly unlikely you should see the gynecologist for the symptoms you are having. Does your mom or an older sister have breast cancer? Have any of the women in your family had a positive genetic test like BRCA gene?

Highly unlikely.: However, if you have a new lump or other symptom, you should still see your doctor for an evaluation.
