I’m 30 and have tons of flat cherry angiomas all over I’ve had them for years. I have a lot and they scare me I read things frim Chinese medicine dr that it means you have cancer or it’ll cause it.I read that’ll lead to angiogenesis which leads to cancer or high estrogen. I’m scared out of my mind I wasn’t told I have high estrogen I’m not on any hormone meds my blood test are all good. I have a lot of these dots more pop up there has to reason I’m terrified it’s going to cause cancer

I checked google quickly and almost all of the sites agree it should be nothing to worry about. I would still say, consult you doctor. Those spots supposedly come with age, depending on your genetics. If you are worried, have them check and maybe get a blood test done to ease your mind.

I have them all over my upper body. They are no more harmful than a freckle.

I’m now worried about this again I have more of these than ever. I’m only early 30s I have many on my chest and breasts now i get more almost every week I’m so scared. I’m getting a hormone test next week. I don’t if understand if they are harmless why am I getting many in short periods of time. Also I read women who were prefect them makes me worry they are hormone related and that Chinese medicine guy was right. I feel like there’s nothing to look forward to that I’m doomed to get my worst fear. No one in my family has these makes it even worse

I turned 33 in April, and I also have several of these, in various places. I've had them for a long time, and I also tend to find new ones periodically. Nothing to worry about.

You don’t think it’s means internal malignancy

My husband has many of these and his dermatologist says they are not concerning. He has had them since his early 20s and he is 50 now.

You're fine. Talk to your doctor about it, they should basically say the same thing - all is well

I went to my dr today she just said they were harmless and she said I didn’t need to take a test for hormones she said she don’t think I have high estrogen and I was a wreck going I forgot to ask why I keep getting them but she was saying they were normal and also I’m very pale and things show more . I still don’t feel satisfied though I mean there’s got to be a reason I keep getting them

Hello

I just wanted to know how you got on?
This is currently happening to me, I am getting more and more each day.
I have been on Sertraline for a month and hoping this is the cause.
Many thanks
Nzgirl
