welcome to Health care magic.
1.No Your symptoms are not related to breast cancer - periodic lumpy feeling, related to the periods.
2.The symptoms more related to the ductal ectasia / dilatation ( hormonal related)
3.In this case if you are my patient, after the examination - in terms of lump. After that order for an ultrasound breast - to evaluate the nature of the lump, its source and its extensions.
4.Depending on the nature of the lump - an FNAC - fine needle aspiration cytology may be needed. ( in your case it looks like a ductal dilatation )
5.Suggest you to see your GP and get the needful tests and treatment done. Good luck.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
