Follow-up!: It could simply be fibrocystic changes, or a simple cyst but please follow-up with your PCP or OB as soon as possible for further work-up!

Breast mass: Depending on other features of the mass, if it is not specifically benign, there is a probability of malignancy. Whether it is high or low depends on other characteristics of the mass. Talk to your doc, you may need short interval follow up, additional imaging, or biopsy.
