I think it will depend on what they tell you. It's hard to picture how much it will take out but it does sound like more than a little and depending on how large chested you are will determine how noticeable it is. I wish you luck though. I understand how hard a decision this is. I'll be going through a double mastectomy this Tuesday.

Did the surgeons give you their recommendation and let you know what they think it will look like?

hello everyone. i had a second biopsy recently......first one was in Feb 2022. The first one showed an 8mm tumour. the second biopsy showed the same tumour but now with scattered atypical ductal hyperplasia...in the right anterior portion of the breast (7.0 x 6.8 x 0.2 cm in aggregate) which has to be removed as well.

i dont have large breasts.......would a lumpectomy still be recommended? or is mastectomy better?

thanks!
