        I just had a mole removed from my breast that started out as a black mole. During and after my pregnancy is took on the fried egg appearance. How did yours end up being ? I am waiting on results stil

          We're your fried egg moles multi colored ? I think mine was darker brown with a lighter brown edge but she told me they were two colors so possibly black and brown ?

            And they looked smaller and more normal before I was pregnant. Darn moles ! They have changed in color and size. I am hoping they are benign and changed due to pregnancy etc

              Thank you for your response I appreciate it. It is so nice to talk with people that are familiar with melanoma and its anxieties etc. I did have them examined and one was taken off to be biopsied. She also said pregnancy makes moles change and that my new moles were healthy. The one she chose to remove was on my right breast. It has the fried egg look to it. She said she didn't suspect it would come back as anything but because of my family history she would rather be proactive about it. The only charecterisitic she didn't like about the mole was that it is two colors. Darker in the middle. So I am anxiously waiting for my results and trying to not be nervous and focus on the positive things she said.

                Thank you 🙂 and I don't worry until I notice a suspicious mole . The waiting to see my derm and waiting for biopsies is where my problems arise. I know everybody has anxieties waiting on appointments and results but I have worry that is just ridiculous. I wish I wasn't that way.

                  I want so badly to not worry so much. I haven't had a thorough skin check in a year or 2 and that is adding to my fears. I am prepared to move on from these moles and biopsies and be more proactive. I don't know I feel like I am automatically going to have melanoma. Just because my mother did does that mean I will ?
