I believe the lumpectomy is done to confirm Adh and rule out any hidden cancer. It’s an easy procedure.

I agree.
That is what I was told.

I understand what the lumpectomy is for, but due to the fact that it was noncancerous and I have no risk factors I'm questioning why I need to have it removed and instead go with the preventative strategies. ADH diagnosis statistically shows a low % of women get cancer. I'm 78 and and after 5-10 yrs, the odds are in my favor.
