Cysts are quite common and often occur with hormonal variation (including menstruation and hormone replacement therapy).

Dear Sissy66: In general, hormone therapy is not recommended in women who have had HR+ breast cancer. However, these decisions can be discussed with your oncologist and weighed benefit against risk. Your sister’s hormone status has no impact on your situation. There may be other medications that could be tried to deal with some of the menopausal symptoms.

however had a complete hysterectomy at 21 and have been on hormone replacement. I know that the early hysterectomy has caused my bone issues(been on Fosamax and actually just started Reclast this week -2.7) but I wonder if it is effecting the breast? I went in for my annual mamo last week and have been called back yet again. New spot directly under the nipple, same breast. Sheduled US for next week. So two mamos and 2 call backs...I am nervous..
