mammogram

so i went for my annual mammogram about 2 weeks ago the day before my period. i get a letter in the mail to come back for additional views. this happened in the past because i've been told i have dense breasts so i'm not too worried. so i go back today. took another test and a sonogram. they asked me when my next period is. i told them in about 2 weeks. i get an "AH' but is not saying much. i ask her what's up. she said all i really see is tissue, nothing dominant & to come back in about 3 months on the 3 day of my period. my original mammogram was the day before my period.

i guess my question is are breasts lumpier or denser at certain times during the month?

i was hoping for a clean bill of health. this wait is going to kill me...

has anybody gone through this

Re: mammogram

I know that breast density changes throughout your cycle, but I don't know much about it or why ... I work in a hospital but am not a clinician, just something I have gleaned from working here.

I don't have any direct experience at all in this but I think they probably just want your most accurate reading.

If there was something to worry about, they would have told you!
