Hi,

I am feeling more lumps in my upper breast which are new .Are they due to pregnancy or should I need to be worried .i am 19weeks pregnant and 2nd time mom

Hi
I appears harmless condition, it is related to harmone changes in early
pregnancy .
In pregnancy, and this age wait and see , repeat ultrasound after three
months .
Examining doctors opinion is more relevant.

Thanks

Prof. Dr. Shahzad Alam Shah · Answer

Thanks for the consult
The history and findings that you are describing are usually attributed to
the usual changes that develop in pregnancy and under hormonal influences
breasts become engorged and nodular. However even if it is fibroadenoma
(that is not painful condition) you should not worry and get it managed
after pregnancy.

Prof. Dr. Ehsan -ur- Rehman · Answer

Sorry for wrong spellings, pl read as NODULAR and not modular

Prof. Dr. Sadaqat Ali Khan · Answer

I will suggest to drink plenty of lukewarm water daily with honey added
such changes are seen following pregnancy and reviewed by me or any breast
surgeon in 6 weeks time.

Dr. Aamir Jameel · Answer

these changes seems to be pregnancy related under influence of harmones.
Repeat scan after 3 months
if nodularity still persist after pregnancy then consult and have complete examination.

U can wait untill delivery

Asst. Prof. Dr. Aamir Hussain · Answer

hi dear thanks for inquiry. Breast is a very dynamic body organ with plenty of processes going on in it corresponding to various phases of female physiology. It increases and decreases even during a menstrual cycle. It also responds to hormonal changes in pregnancy by increasing in size and preparing for baby feeding. Lumpiness is not uncommon in breast therefore. if your tissue biopsy or FNAC is fine and you do not have symptoms, there is no need to worry. Otherwise you might need excision.
