Live your life: You're a bit on the young side for a mammogram and so I do not know if you have risk factors that warrant early mammography. The purpose of doing a test is to look for an answer to a question, unfortunately, we have to learn to live with "probabilities" in this world. I would not personally put my life on hold because another exam was "suggested" in 6 mos. Keep trying to conceive if you desire.
