    iv just switched on this morning, and they were talking about it!! the lumps would appear in the breast tissue, which is pushed to the front of your boob by the implant, and apparantly because most women who have had a BA had little breast tissue to start we are quite low risk and able to find any lumps easier xx

    if you have had a BA they do something different when screening but can’t remember what it is, I don’t think we have to ahve mammograms until 45 or 50 unless family history of it xx

    I asked this and was told that if you have implants, lumps will be fairly easy, if not easier, to detect because the implant is behind your own breast tissue. And let them know at screenings that you have implants and they’ll do it differently x
