Breast cancer disease
What is breast cancer?
Cancer occurs when changes called mutations place genes that regulate cell growth.
Breast cancer is a type of cancer that developed in breast cells. Typically, the cancer forms in either the lobules or the ducts of the breast.
Lobules are the glands the nipple, Cancer can also occur in the fatty tissue or the fibrous connective tissue within the breast. The unconstrained cancer cells often invade other healthy breast tissue and can travel to the lymph nodes under the arms. One time the cancer enters the lymph nodes, it has access to a path to move to the other part of the body.

What are the major causes of breast cancer?
The accurate causes of breast cancer are unclear, but we know the main risk factors.
The main risks are being older and have breast cancer in your family. The risk goes up for women with certain types of benign breast lumps and for women who have had ovarian cancer and if you’ve had breast cancer, you can get it again.
Still, most women considered at high risk for breast cancer do not get it, while many with no known fear factors do.
All women who are 50 to 70 years of age should be screened for breast cancer every 3 years as part of the NHS breast screening project.
Women over the age of 70 are still eligible to be screened and can arrange this through their GP or local screening unit.
- Age- The condition is most common in women over age 50 who have been through the .menopause About 8 out of 10 cases of breast cancer happen in women.
As with many other diseases, risk of the breast cancer goes up as you get older. About two out of three invasive breast cancers are found at the age of 55.
2. Family History
Women with close relatives Who’ve been diagnosed with breast cancer have a higher risk of developing the disease. If you have had one first-degree female diagnosed with breast cancer, risk is doubled.
3. Certain Breast changes
If you have been diagnosed with certain benign breast condition, you may have risk of breast cancer.
4. Being overweight is an issue
Women who are overweight or obese have such a higher chance of developing breast cancer than women who maintain a healthy weight, especially after menopause. In women who’ve had breast cancer, being overweight can raise the likelihood of the illness returning (recurrence).
5. History of Pregnancy
When comparison to women who gave birth before the age of 30, women who haven’t had a full-term pregnancy or who have their first kid after the age of 30 have a higher risk of breast cancer.
Breastfeeding can lower breast cancer risk, especially if a woman breastfeeds for longer than 1 year.
Women who began menstruation (had periods) it before age of 12 is much more like to develop breast cancer later in life.
Drinking alcoholic beverages like beer, wine, and alcohol increases a woman’s chance of hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer, according to research.
9. Breasts with a lot of density
According to research, dense breasts are twice as likely to have cancer as non-dense breasts, and mammography has a tougher time identifying breast cancer in dense breasts.
