Hi my wife who is 28 years of age is having multiple lumps in both breast. We had mammography 4 months back n the doctor said it's non cancerous no need to worry, she prescribed novex 30 mg daily for 3 months n told if the size of the lumps will decrease after 3 months medication then she has to continue novex 30 mg for another 3 months. So after completion of the medicine we went to her n she was mammography again. N the doctor said few lumps sizes has decreased n few new lumps has occurred. Now no need to take medicine just have mammography after every 3-4 months. So is there any risk? Is multiple lumps are common? Or can it be developed in cancerous lump in future?

Multiple lumps in both breast at this age with negative mammographic finding doesn't point towards breast cancer- rather indicates towards benign breast disease. No need to worry about. You can repeat mammography after 6 mths or can do usg both breast, but rarely a chance of malignancy. Still it will alleviate your anxiety and if anything suspicious lesion found (though chance is very less in this case) it can be intervened early. Wish you and your wife good luck for the future.

First of all mammography is not to be done before the age of 30 yrs, its not indicated and will not be useful before 30-35 years get usg breast done for follow up instead if new lumps are arising it might need an fnac from a good centre but depends on clinical examination more importantly.
