Frequently Asked Questions

Is Mammography Painful?

For some women, the compression can make mammography unpleasant, but for the majority, it is just moderately uncomfortable, and the sensation lasts only a few seconds. Nonetheless, some women may avoid routine mammograms because they are concerned about the pain.

Age Required for Mammography?

For women at medium risk for breast cancer, it is highly recommended to start mammography screening no earlier than age 40 and no later than age 50, and continue until the age of 74.

Side Effects of Mammography

The primary hazards and other negative outcomes of screening mammography are breast compression pain, patient recall for extra imaging, and false positive biopsies.

What does a breast lump feel like?

Breast tissue can feel lumpy and sponge-like on its own, making it difficult to distinguish between a genuine lump and healthy breast tissue. A breast lump is a distinct mass that is clearly firmer than the rest of your breast tissue.

Is breast lump serious?

Consult a doctor if you have any of these symptoms. Find a new lump (or any change) in your breast that feels different from the rest of it. Look for a new lump (or any change) that differs from your other breast. Feel something different than you’ve felt before.
