    I often get lumps and cysts in both my breasts, ive got the implanon and don’t have regular periods so can’t rule out whether its due to being due to have a period but I’ve noticed I have another lump. My op is in 2 weeks i’m going to try get a doc appointment tomorrow but don’t know what to do about my op as it normally takes about 2 weeks to be referred to breast clinic in my area (was there in Jan) x

    Hi Alex,
    I’m in the same boat, not sure if it’s hormones or cysts… I wear a lot of padding in my bra to make my boobs look bigger though, so it might be the pressure from that?
    I’d like to know if anyone has had lumps before their op too?

    I had to have a mammogram before my breast uplift as I had never had one before and my surgeon told me that I should have one. I didn’t really have time to wait to get a visit to the doctor then wait for a letter then go to hospital . so I just called up a few private hospitals. I found one that didn’t need a surgeon or doctors referral letter and paid £100 for a mammogram and got seen the next day. They found a lump and so I needed a scan which cost £95. Had to have my uplift put on hold. Got referred to NHS. Had biopsy. It was nothing. Phew. The biopsy took 10 days to come back.

    So if you go private you will be seen straight away. .

    Hope that helps..

    I have cysts in my boobs which haven’t been checked for about 3 years so my pc told me to go have an ultrasound again to have them checked…. I;ve just booked my surgery for 2nd May so hoping it doesn’t delay me! xxx

    Well I only got checked 8 weeks ago with an ultrasound and checked the area i found one last night as i have one there that comes and goes. Im over paranoid about lumps as my grandma died of breast cancer. The lump I felt last night has gone this morning so guess its hormonal. I need to get my implanon removed so I know where I am, I have had 2 appointments but have had to cancel 🙁 the cysts they found at the end of jan have now gone too x
