Suggest Treatment For Fibroadenoma Of Breast

I have been diagnosed with a Fibroadenoma 1.5-2 cm a few days ago. They found it with a mamo followed by US when I talked about a burning pain I had been having in the left breast. All of the research I am doing says fibroadenomas are most common in younger women so is there a a possibility that I have something else? I am going to a breast specialist next week. Will they do an excision? I am a very natural person and want to avoid surgery. No cancer in my family. I am currently now cutting out dairy, soy, most meats and caffeine and sugar. Can I shrink this tumor with diet? I am also using progesterone cream and Primrose oil as well as green drinks. I am determined to reverse this! Thanks.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Dear patient
Nothing can reverse fibroadenoma once it's diagnosed and only option is to excise it with surgery. It usually seen in young females but not uncommon in middle age. It has no relation with food and caffeine. Excision is very safe procedure and with recent techniques even scar is not seen. So better get it done from expert general surgeon. All the best.
