Im 27 and i was doing a beast exam and found a knot on my r breast but i am due to start my cycle in 6 days so do i need to get it checked out or wait?

Re-exam post period: Reexamine the breast after the menstrual flow has started, and if the lump is still there, see a MD. Sometimes, lumps appear due to hormonal changes tat disappear after the period starts.
