What does it mean if an ultrasound of a breast lump showed it could be a phyllodes tumor, fibroadenoma, or intramammary lymph node, and what action should be taken next?

Mid cycle spotting is not uncommon, and it occurs around the time of the ovulation, due to a temporary drop in the levels of hormones (which helps to build up the inner lining of the womb). If you have taken the birth control pill and it stops the mid cycle spotting, it indicates ovulation as the likely reason for the mid cycle bleeding. This is because the birth control pill works by inhibiting ovulation (hence preventing pregnancy). Usually mid cycle spotting due to ovulation lasts 1-2 days and clears quickly.

Thank you for asking this question that will benefit a lot of readers. I can imagine that you would be worried about a lump over your chest. An ultrasound is usually ordered by the GP or specialists to tell us more information about a lump. For me, I am a family physician, usually we will write a letter that will allow you to be scanned in a neighborhood location. Usually costs about a hundred. There are some GP clinics that have an ultrasound machine. But I'm not very sure of these clinics locations at the moment. Usually the doctor has to agree that a scan is required.
