breast pain? Okay so I have this sharp breath taking pain in my left breast. I don't know what it could be. I mean is it a sign of my period, or is it a sign of breast canser or what.
What should i do , i would rather wait for my parents to be my last resort.

well instead of saying anything embarrissing,
just say "mom(or dad), i have a pain inside my chest" it sounds more serious,which you should be taking it, and it wont make things as awkward.
also explain how it hurts and when(and if it hurts when you breathe, press on it).
it honestly could mean your period is coming, because i had a pain in my left chest, and then i got it. it went away afterwards.
it could also be you slept on your shoulder wrong, leaving a really tense muscle in your chest.
all in all its best to tell your parents and get it checked out, because i'm sure there are many more possibilities than what i listed* hope i helped :D ! ]
I do not know your parents, so I do not know why you may not want to consolt them but there are some logical things you need to consider.
Let's assume that, God forbid, it's something horrible like Breast Cancer. If you knew you had Breast Cancer, you would of course want it treated and would have to consolt your parents anyways. That would be IF you knew you had Breast cancer. In all honesty, none of us here are doctors, and we for sure can't diagnose someone over the computer. So you would have to try and tell for yourself whether or not you had breast cancer or not. But you don't know how to do that either, after all, you are asking for people's advice online. Even if you had a slight idea of how to check, when would you decide that you had enough evidence to confirm that you had it? You again, would have to find your parents and tell them. Unfortunatly, the situation could be really out of hand and seeing a doctor might not help.
Not being a woman, I don't know what the female body goes through right before their period. Even if you are about to have one, no one can say for sure if that is the cause of the pain or simply a coincidence. If you wait to find out, again, it may be too late.
Please do yourself a favor and tell your parents about this so they can ask you questions and hopefully see a medical practictionor, if that is indeed what they think is best for you. Always air on the side of caution and see a doctor. No one here can tell for sure what that pain is and we are only guessing. Go to someone who is medically trained and can tell you exactly what your body is doing.
Hope this helps and I usually don't tell people that they should take my advice, that's up to them. I am asking you however, to please do this for yourself. It will save you a lot of worrying and when your finished and everything is ok, you will be much more glad that you did it instead of guessing, even if it is nothing, which God willing it is. ]
