Brown Patches on Areola
Posted , 2 users are following.
Hello. I have a doctor's appointment about this in this upcoming week, but I've been having consistent anxiety since I found this out, and I want to feel less worried.
A few days ago, I noticed a brown patch on my areola that I have never seen before. It is only on one breast. It does not feel any different. I am not pregnant and never have been. My period was last week and just ended, I noticed it in the middle of the cycle, don't know if it was there beforehand. It hasn't changed since then, but today I just noticed another small brown dot nearby that I don't think was there earlier. I am over 18 but under 25 years old. I have felt some pain in the area but it was only after I discovered the patch, so I feel it might be imagined. I haven't noticed any other changes in my breasts.
Like I said above, I'm going to the doctor's soon to confirm, but in the meantime, should I actually be worried? Or am I letting my anxiety issues get the best of me? Google literally doesn't help at all, only giving me resources for pregnant women, so I'm at my wit's end trying to rationalize this well enough to calm down.
