Answers:
At 13 your chances of having breast cancer are very nearly zero!. 80% of people diagnosed with it are over 50; women in their 20s and thirties are considered young to have breast cancer!. It is EXTREMELY rare in a teenager!.
You don't say why you think you may have it; is it a lump!? Even in adult women (including the over-50s) most breast lumps aren't cancerous!.
Your breasts are still growing and developing, and any changes you notice will almost certainly be hormonal!.
Talk to your mother or your school nurse about this; they should be able to reassure youWww@Answer-Health@Com
