Aim: To evaluate the association between fibrocystic changes of the breast and myoma uteri of which have hormonal factors in their etiology. Material and Method: Between January 2017 to March 2017 a total of 665 consecutive women were retrospectively evaluated. One hundred and four patients having myoma uteri and 84 patients not having myoma uteri proved with imaging techniques, were included in the study. Mammographic breast density, and also whether there were mass, microcalcification, axillary lymphadenopathy or not, and mammographic BI-RADS results were enrolled. Besides, breast type, solid lesions, cysts, multiple cysts, ductal ectasia in ultrasonography and sonographic BI-RADS results were recorded. If it is available, the biopsy results were noted. Results: Mean age of myoma uteri group was 48.6±6.1 and control group was 50.0±8.7 and there was consistency in respect to ages. There was no significant difference in breast density, mass, microcalcification, ductal ectasia, and malignant lesions between the study and control group. Statistically, a significant difference was found in breast cysts between study (% 72.5) and control (% 51.9) group (p=0.008). Conclusion: Fibrocystic changes are more common in myoma uteri. It might be helpful in clinical practice to keep in mind this result in management of myoma uteri patients.
