What Causes Lump On The Breast?

I have a rather large lump on my breast. I've had it for a couple years. I've tried to be reffered for a mammogram but have been unsuccessful. The first doctor I saw shook it off as nothing to worry about. The second time I was seen I ended up being pregnant and obviously couldn't get one. Over the years the lump has gotten slightly bigger and I am concerned. Everytime I see a new doctor they pretty much ignore me and say I'm too young to worry about breast cancer, and that it's probably nothing. I've recently turned 27 years old, and I don't feel I'm too young to worry. My cousin was diagnoseed at 29 (years after noticing the lump) and fought her ass off before dying at 38. I guess I'm just curious about what some other symptoms might be. If, unfortunately, I do have any other symptoms, maybe I can get a doctor to acctually give a shit and check me out.

From history it seems that you might be having Fibro-adenoma of breast which is benign and non cancerous.
It requires through mannually check up by Gynaec.
You may require Mammogram to know exact nature of lump.
consult Gynaec and get examined and investigated.
Ok and take care.
