Should discuss: It is hard to say without more information - a simple cyst, small hemangioma, or fibronodular hyperplasia may require no changes, but a benign adenoma may require you to stop taking oral contraceptives if you are female. Discuss with your surgeon as you may need to consider having further follow-up imaging for certain types of benign tumors.
