  1. Breast Cancer Treatment

  2. Five essential facts you need to know about breast cancer • 1. Breast cancer is more common than you believe it to be  •  Breast cancer is a serious health condition that affects more than 1 in 8 women worldwide. In India, the incidences of breast cancer is high. According to latest global cancer report, it is the most common type of cancer in women, accounting for 31% of all cancers diagnosed. It can be caused by many factors, including environmental and lifestyle choices, genetics, and the use of hormones. • 2. It can be more than a lump  •  A breast lump is the most common symptom, but it's not the only one that signals breast cancer.  • Swelling of breast or a small part of it • Skin irritation  • Nipple retraction  • Redness, scaliness, or thickening of the nipple or breast skin  • Nipple discharge other than breast milk  • An unexplained fever  • Women often find symptoms on their own. That's why women need to know how their breasts look and feel normally.

  3. 3. Breast cancer can occur at any age  Although a majority of breast cancer cases occur in women over the age of 50 in a western country, it can actually happen at any age. It is alarming to find that breast cancer is diagnosed at a much earlier age in India. In India, breast cancers are diagnosed between the ages of 40 - 60 years.  4. Breast cancer can occur during pregnancy  When women are pregnant or breastfeeding, it may take longer to notice changes in the breast. Breasts are generally more tender during pregnancy and may feel more "lumpy" than during normal time, making it harder to find a discrete lump or notice other changes in the breast, causing a delay in diagnosis. 5.  Family history doesn’t play a major role  It's important to note that a woman with breast cancer does not always come from a family with breast cancer or has a family history of breast cancer. Strong family history (hereditary breast cancer) accounts for only 5-10% of breast cancers it's usually due to a gene abnormality such as BRCA1 or BRCA2.  For a fact fewer than 10% of women with breast cancer have a family history of the disease. HCG Oncology is one of the best  hospital for  breast cancer treatment.
