I'm really worried because my wife has been diagnosed with fibroadenoma in her right breast, and it's positioned just above her ovary. Our doctor thinks surgery is the best option, but I'm not entirely sure and feel like I need a second opinion on whether this is necessary. What do you think? Could there be any other treatment options we should consider?
