Looks normal to me: Such changes are common and considered normal. But why did you have mammogram at this young age? I tis not recommended under 40 years unless you have a suspected problem.

These findings: are not significant with respect to the presence of breast cancer. However, fibrocystic changes could be a source of pain/tenderness.
