[|Human|] Ive had a 3cm x 3cm core biopsy confirmed fibroadenoma for 7 years. Unchanged in size up until the last two years, in which Ive noticed it getting slowly but considerably larger. , during the last two years Ive had a baby, and suffered an extraordinarily large amount of emotional stress in particular inThe last six months, when I noticed the fibroadenoma getting larger. I stopped taking birth control pills just before I fell pregnant.  Can severe stress and a pregnancy make a fibroadenoma grow. Can it turn into phyllodes tumour. Is core biopsy ever wrong??
[|AI|]  Hi, As the lump is growing in size some other possibility should be kept in mind. Anyway, followed tumor and fibroadenoma both can be diagnosed by histopathology report. Clinical examination also can help to find out the diagnosis. Generally interpretation of core biopsy is done by experienced pathologist and chance of getting a wrong report is minimal. Whether the swelling is associated with pain or not, is there any color changes over the swelling also to be noted. Consult a general surgeon. Take care.
