A member asked:
Im 17, female. both of my breasts have little lumpy area right above my areola. is this normal? not the entire breast, but just a little area.

Breast lumps: I recommend an examination by a breast surgeon even though serious breast pathology is unlikely. There could be some cystic changes due to hormonal influences or even from ingesting caffeine or chocolate, but for peace of mind I would rather have a specialist examine and advise you.
