BEAT BREAST CANCER.

Breast cancer is one of the commonest cancers in women

But you have more control over breast cancer than you think.

1)      Know the risk factors. Of course there are non - modifiable risk factors like age and genetic predisposition. Usually as age increases the risk of breast cancer increases. Having a close relative with breast cancer doubles the risk. Having gene defects like BRCA1 and BRCA2increases the risk 5 times.

2)      Regular self-examination of breast and regular check-up

3)      Obesity or excessive weight can increase the risk. Maintain your weight with proper diet and regular exercise. Reduce your intake of refined and packaged foods and fat.

4)      Quit smoking

Cigarette smoke contains toxins and cancer causing chemicals. There are more chances of a woman dying of breast cancer if she is a smoker.

5)      Limit Alcohol consumption

6)      Regular breast screening

In addition to breast self-examination and regular check-up with your doctor screening mammography is recommended after age 50.This helps to detect cancer at an early stage. With early detection the chances of cure are high.
