BREAST CANCER

Breast cancer is cancer that forms in the cells of the breasts.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed in women. It can occur in both men and women, but it's far more common in women.

There are 8 types of breast cancer

1. Angiosarcoma

2. Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)

3. Inflammatory breast cancer

4. Invasive lobular carcinoma

5. Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS)

6. Male breast cancer

7. Paget's disease of the breast

8. Recurrent breast cancer

Symptoms


Signs and symptoms of breast cancer may include:

1. A breast lump or thickening that feels different from the surrounding tissue

2. Change in the size, shape or appearance of a breast

3. Changes to the skin over the breast, such as dimpling

4. A newly inverted nipple

5. Peeling, scaling, crusting or flaking of the pigmented area of skin surrounding the nipple (areola) or breast skin

6. Redness of the skin over your breast, like the skin of an orange

Causes

Breast cancer occurs when some breast cells begin to grow abnormally. These cells divide more rapidly than healthy normal cells do and continue to accumulate, forming a lump or mass.

Cells may spread (metastasize) through your breast to the lymph nodes or to other parts of the body.

Inherited breast cancer


Do you know that about 5 to 10 percent of breast cancers are linked to gene mutations passed through generations of a family.

A number of inherited mutated genes that can increase the likelihood of breast cancer have been identified.

This means that breast cancer can be inherited.

Risk factors

A breast cancer risk factor is anything that makes it more likely that you will get breast cancer.

But having one or even several breast cancer risk factors doesn't necessarily mean you will develop breast cancer.

Many women who develop breast cancer have no known risk factors other than simply being women.

Factors that are associated with an increased risk of breast cancer include:

1. Being female.
Women are much more likely than men are to develop breast cancer.

2. Increasing age.
Your risk of breast cancer increases as you grow older.

3. A personal history of breast conditions. If you have had a breast biopsy that found lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) or atypical hyperplasia of the breast, you have an increased risk of breast cancer.

A personal history of breast cancer. If you have had breast cancer in one breast, you have an increased risk of developing cancer in the other breast.

4. A family history of breast cancer.
Certain gene mutations that increase the risk of breast cancer can be passed from parents to children. These genes can greatly increase your risk of breast cancer and other cancers.

5. Radiation exposure.
If you received radiation treatments to your chest as a child or young adult, your risk of breast cancer is increased.

6. Obesity.
Being obese increases your risk of breast cancer.

7. Beginning your menstruation at a very young age. Beginning your period before age 12 increases your risk of breast cancer.

8. Beginning menopause at an older age. If you began menopause at an older age, you are more likely to develop breast cancer.

9. Having your first child at an older age. Women who give birth to their first child after age 40 may have an increased risk of breast cancer.

10. Having never been pregnant. Women who have never been pregnant have a greater risk of breast cancer than do women who have had one or more pregnancies.

11. Postmenopausal hormone therapy. Women who take hormone therapy medications that combine estrogen and progesterone to treat the signs and symptoms of menopause have an increased risk of breast cancer.

The risk of breast cancer decreases when women stop taking these medications.

12. Drinking alcohol.
Drinking alcohol increases the risk of breast cancer.

There's no scientific evidence to prove that sucking the breast reduces the risk of breast cancer.

Prevention

Try these:

Once a woman is 30 to 40 years she should do breast cancer screening exams and tests, such as clinical breast exams and mammograms.

Become familiar with your breasts through breast self-exam for breast awareness. Women may choose to become familiar with their breasts by occasionally inspecting their breasts during a breast self-exam for breast awareness. If there is a new change, lumps or other unusual signs in your breasts, see your health care professional.

Breast awareness can't prevent breast cancer, but it may help you to better understand the normal changes that your breasts undergo and identify any unusual signs and symptoms.

Drink alcohol in moderation, if at all. Limit the amount of alcohol you drink to no more than one drink a day, if you choose to drink.

Exercise. Aim for at least 30 minutes of exercise on some days of the week. If you haven't been active lately, start slowly.

Limit postmenopausal hormone therapy. Combination hormone therapy may increase the risk of breast cancer.

Some women experience bothersome signs and symptoms during menopause and, for these women, the increased risk of breast cancer may be acceptable in order to relieve menopause signs and symptoms.

To reduce the risk of breast cancer, use natural remedies to balance your hormones.

Maintain a healthy weight. If your weight is healthy, work to maintain that weight. Lose weight if possible.

Reduce the number of calories you eat each day and slowly increase the time of exercise.

Choose a healthy diet. Women who eat a avocado with extra-virgin olive oil and mixed nuts may have a reduced risk of breast cancer.
Choose healthy fats, such as olive oil, over butter and fish instead of red meat.
