What is Breast Cancer?
Breast cancer is the most feared cancer among women; it is second only to lung cancer in occurrence. This year alone, more than 200,000 women and 1,500 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer. Classic symptoms include a new lump that does not go away, spontaneous discharge from the nipple, a change in the contours of the breast, redness or pitting of the skin.
There are several ways to screen for breast cancer before symptoms are exhibited. All women should do a Breast Self-Exam on a monthly basis. In women younger than 40, a breast exam should be part of their routine annual physical. In women older than 40, a mammogram should be performed on a yearly basis.
How can I reduce my risk of Breast Cancer?
-Ask your doctor about the use of aspirin.
-Limit alcohol intake.
-Avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics.
-Ask your doctor about long-term hormone therapy.
Eating well, managing stress and exercise are all great ways to promote your overall health and combat breast cancer.
