A member asked:
Is it possible for some benign breast lumps to appear before menstrual cycle and disappear during or afterwards?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely : Benign fibrocystic tissue in the breast cycles with you menses and can feel like a lump in the breast that goes away after your period. Some breast cysts are cyclical as well. See your doctor for a breast exam to confirm that this is benign tissue and not something else.
