I've had a lump in my right breast, around 35 cm, slightly toward the lower side, for about 5 years now. Tried homeopathy but didn't see much improvement. Got a mammogram in 2017 which showed it's a fibroadenoma, and the doctor advised removing it soon, but I'm not keen on surgery. Can it be treated with medication instead? If not, what could happen if I leave it since it doesn't bother me much just occasional mild pain during my period. Also, my periods have been irregular for the past 23 months, sometimes late by 2-3 days or up to a week, but recently it was two weeks late. Could this be related to the lump? Should I be worried?

Long-standing fibroadenoma usually needs surgical removal if symptomatic; medications don’t shrink it, and leaving it may risk growth or discomfort, though not typically linked to periods.

View allI'm a bit concerned because I started bleeding for about 5 days after a dilation and curettage, then it stopped for 3 days, but now it's started again, and the bleeding is brown. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?
Bleeding 5 days after a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure is common, and the subsequent stoppage for 3 days followed by brown-colored bleeding could be due to hormonal changes, uterine lining shedding, or minor spotting

I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing some discomfort in my breasts lately. There's this off-and-on stinging pain in both breasts, and they feel kind of heavy and sore. What's weird is that when the stinging pain hits, I also get this painful pulse on the right side of my head. I know I usually get menstrual migraines, but I'm not near my cycle right now. Could these things be related, or is there something else going on?
