Excisional biopsy?: Consider an excisional biopsy for a tissue diagnosis to confirm the presence of the fibroadenomas especially if you are worried, have a family history of breast, ovarian, or colon cancer(genetic), or the growths are large. Get a second opinion.

Talk to you doctor: Any plan about your health should be with your agreement. It is good as long as you both stick to it: you following up with your physician and your physician ordering the appropriate test. If you have regular follow ups and the aspect of the lesion doesn't change you shouldn't be worried.
