Can a cyst turn into cancer, with time?!


Question: Can a cyst turn into cancer, with time!?
I was told last year that I had a cyst in my breast and there was absolutely nothing to worry about!. Well, lately I've been told different by my new coworker, who is convincing me that the doctor who told me that it was a cyst should have been more proactive in his diagnosis and warned me that it's possible cysts turn into cancer!. Is she right!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It's pretty common for women to have benign cysts in the breast, and often a physician can determine whether it is a non-life-threatening growth by palpation (feeling it) or by ultrasound or other imaging, or by biopsy!. Women who regularly drink coffee or other caffeinated beverages often develop fibrous cysts in the breasts!. If you are very concerned, you can get a second opinion or ask for further testing!.
