Please correlate with the histopathology report of biopsy of the lump sample. Birad score 5 means that the lump may be cancerous. In your case chances are there that it may not be cancerous. Risk is 30-50%
Next Steps
Biopsy is the next step that should to be taken. I hope that the reports will be good and the lump is non cancerous.
