Biopsy shows atpical hyperplasia in left breast: Can I avoid surgery?

Hi, glad your daughter didn't have to go through surgery and her ADH went away without treatment. If you don't mind sharing the decision behind going the monitoring route? Did your daughter get a breast MRI? Did her doctor give her a choice between surgery and monitoring?
I recently got diagnosed with ADH but the pathology report indicated 'mild and low-grade'. Breast surgeon ordered a breast MRI (3 weeks out, ugh, more waiting) but she said surgery would still be the next step. This is very anxiety inducing. 🙁
Thanks for your time.

Would be so happy to share more, but my daughter is 50 and lives in another state. Really not sure what was done and how decisions were made, but it went away very quickly after it appeared. She still just monitors.
I know how worrying it can be. Keep asking questions until you are comfortable.
