What is breast cancer?
Breast cancer is a type of cancer that forms in the cells of the breast.
It is the most common cancer diagnosed in women and the second most common cancer overall.
Breast cancer can occur in both men and women, but it is much more common in women.
The risk factors for breast cancer include age, family history, genetic mutations, hormonal factors, and lifestyle factors.
Symptoms of breast cancer may include a lump or thickening in the breast, changes in the size or shape of the breast, nipple discharge, and changes in the skin of the breast.
Treatment for breast cancer may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and targeted therapy.
Early detection and treatment can improve the chances of survival.
