In 2007 fibroadenoma (5cm). in menopause since 2009, today found another one, same mammal (3 cm). have i more risk of breath cancer than other people?

Slightly : Just monitor by self exam and perhaps imaging and get seen if anything else turns up. Having had a fibroadenoma does confer a slightly greater risk, but good self-care that you have given yourself more than overbalances this.
