A member asked:
I'm 21 and have a lump in my right breast. what are the odds this is cancerous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you do not have a strong family history, the odds of having breast cancer at 21 are low but never zero. I would recommend you see your family doctor an let he/she evaluate you, estimate your risk, and see what the next step should be. Best to you.
