Fibroadenomas vary in size, and they can get bigger or even shrink on their own. <\/p>\n

Fibroadenomas are among the most common breast lumps in young women. Treatment may include monitoring to detect changes in the size or feel of the fibroadenoma, a biopsy to evaluate the lump, or surgery to remove it.<\/p>\n
