Hello welcome to the health care magic
In post menopausal women mass is not normal and whenever mass detected biopsy is always advisable
It can be malignant or Benign... But don't worry...
With the biopsy and histopathology examination the picture will be clear
Provide your histopathology report when done
After report ask your doctor whether it is Benign or malignant and how is the prognosis of my case
Hope your concern solved
