Breast cancer is an uncontrolled growth of breast cells that can occur in both women and men. Worldwide, it is the fifth most common cause of cancer death. Symptoms may include a breast lump, changes to the skin or nipple, or swollen lymph nodes. Diagnosis involves biopsy of suspicious breast tissue. Screening methods include monthly breast self-exams, annual clinical exams starting at age 20, and yearly mammograms starting at age 40. Risk factors include family history, age, genetics, lifestyle factors, and some medical conditions. Reducing risks involves healthy habits and screening.
