Benign breast lesions are quite common today. Many women experience breast-related complaints in any period of their lives and refer to clinician. The definition of Beingn breast lesions covers many different conditions, from a small disorder that may occur during the development of breast tissue to lesions that increase the risk of malignancy several times. Benign breast lesions are quite common among women. Among these lesions, fibroadenoma is the most common and present in% of asymptomatic women. Breast cancer is a difficult condition for patients to accept and is an important source of anxiety. It is reported that some patients affect marriage, sexuality, Noble relationships, professional life and family relationships as a result of anxiety related to breast diseases. There are many studies in the literature on the anxiety caused by breast cancer, but we have seen that a study examining the mood and sleep quality changes of patients diagnosed with benign breast lesions has not been conducted before.

As a study group, 70 patients who applied to the General Surgery outpatient clinic of Dr. Ali Kemal Belviranlı Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital between June and September 2020 and who were asked to breast usg with a pre-diagnosis of benign breast lesion as a result of anamnesis and physical examination; 70 participants without breast lesions and any chronic physical or mental illness were included as the control group. The patients and the control group were asked to complete the sociodemographic data form, Beck Depression Scale, Beck Anxiety Scale, and Pittsburg Sleep Quality Scale.
