A member asked:
Is it possible to diagnose fibrocystic breasts from touching?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not Really: Fibrocystic disease is a hodgepodge of benign pathologic changes seen under the microscope, so it can only be diagnosed by biopsy. However, it has been used frequently by doctors to describe "lumpy-bumpy" breast tissue, which all women have in some form.
