I'm really worried about my wife. She's 23 and has been dealing with fibroadenoma for about 4 years now. There's one in her right breast that's around 3 cm, and it's causing her a lot of fear. We're really hoping to find a way to treat it without surgery. Any advice?

Which is the better option for treating cancer surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation? I'm really confused about the best approach and worried about side effects or effectiveness. Can you explain the pros and cons of each?

Location of the Cancer: If the cancer is localized (in one area), radiation therapy may be preferred because it targets specific spots. However, if the cancer has spread to other parts of the body (systemic cancer), chemotherapy is typically more effective.
