A member asked:
Can breast cancer remain same throughout a year?or it grows more and show symptoms.coz i felt same a year still scan & xray reports put me in birads4

There is a: wide range of growth rates for breast cancer, with the average doubling time probably about 6 months. However, cancers can also grow very slowly over the course of years, or more rapidly. BIRADS 4 doesn't mean you have cancer. It means there is a suspicious lesion likely needing a biopsy. Practically speaking, there is a 60-80% chance a BIRADS 4 lesion will be benign.
