Fibroadenomas are noncancerous breast tumors that commonly affect women, especially those in their 20s and 30s. These tumors develop from glandular and connective tissue in the breast and are typically smooth, firm, and mobile. While the exact cause of fibroadenomas is unclear, hormonal fluctuations, such as those during puberty, pregnancy, or hormonal therapy, are believed to play a role in their development.
Symptoms of fibroadenomas may include a palpable lump in the breast, breast tenderness, or changes in breast size or shape.
However, many fibroadenomas are discovered incidentally during routine breast exams or imaging studies. Treatment options for fibroadenomas vary based on factors like size, symptoms, and patient preference. Observation with regular monitoring, minimally invasive procedures like needle biopsy or aspiration, or surgical removal may be recommended depending on the individual case.
It's important for individuals with concerns about breast health to seek medical evaluation and guidance for proper diagnosis and management of fibroadenomas.
