7. What is Breast Cancer?
Breast Cancer is a tumor arising from the cells of the
breast, wherein cells divide and grow without normal
control. Most commonly from the inner lining of milk
ducts or the lobules that supply the ducts with milk.
9. Lump in the breast
Most breast lumps are not cancerous. All
breast lumps, however, need to be evaluated
by a doctor.
10. Nipple discharge
Breast discharge is a
common problem and is
rarely a symptom of cancer.
Discharge is most
concerning, if it is from only
one breast or if it is bloody.
In any case, all breast
discharge should be
evaluated.
11. Nipple Inversion
Nipple inversion is a
common variant of
normal nipples, but
nipple inversion that
is a new
development can be
of concern.
12. Changes in Breast Skin
Changes in the skin of the breast include redness,
changes in texture, and puckering. These changes
are usually caused by skin diseases but occasionally
can be associated with breast cancer.
14. Uncontrollable risk factors
• Gender: Being a woman is the main risk for breast
cancer. While men also get the disease, it is about
100 times more common in women than in men.
• Age: The chance of getting breast cancer goes up as
a woman gets older. About 2 of 3 women with
invasive breast cancer are 55 or older when the
cancer is found.
15. Cont.
• Genetic risk factors: About 5% to 10% of
breast cancers are thought to be linked to
inherited changes (mutations) in certain genes.
• Family history: Breast cancer risk is higher
among women whose close blood relatives
have this disease. The relatives can be from
either the mother’s or father’s side of the
family.
16. Cont.
• Personal history of breast cancer: A
woman with cancer in one breast has a
greater chance of getting a new cancer in
the other breast or in another part of the
same breast. This is different from a
return of the first cancer (called
a recurrence).
17. Cont.
• Dense breast tissue: Dense breast tissue means
there is more gland tissue and less fatty tissue.
Women with denser breast tissue have a higher
risk of breast cancer. Dense breast tissue can also
make it harder for doctors to spot problems on
mammograms.
18. Cont.
• Race: Overall, white women are slightly
more likely to get breast cancer than
Asian, Hispanic, and Native-American
women have a lower risk of getting and
dying from breast cancer.
19. Controllable risk factors
• Recent use of birth control pills: Studies have
found that women who are using birth control
pills have a slightly greater risk of breast cancer
than women who have never used them.
20. Controllable risk factors
Not having children or having them later in life:
Women who have had not had children, or who
had their first child after age 30, have a slightly
higher risk of breast cancer.
21. Cont.
• Not breastfeeding: Some studies have
shown that breastfeeding slightly lowers
breast cancer risk, especially if the
breastfeeding lasts 1½ to 2 years.
22. Cont.
• Alcohol: The use of alcohol is clearly
linked to an increased risk of getting
breast cancer.
24. Cont.
• Lack of exercise: Studies show that
exercise reduces breast cancer risk. The
only question is how much exercise is
needed.
• One study found that as little as 1 hour
and 15 minutes to 2½ hours of brisk
walking per week reduced the risk by
18%. Walking 10 hours a week reduced
the risk a little more.
