Brief Answer: This is a benign thing Detailed Answer: Hi Thanks for your query. Fibroadenoma is a benign (harmless) thing found in many women of your age. This does not require any treatment. If you are worried about it you can get it removed by surgery but this is not really required. Surgery is usually done under anesthesia so not painful. It is a short and simple surgery and you can go home the same day. Hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer further followup queries, if any.
