DNA analysis of the breast cancer patient for the appropriate and exact chemotherapy
Every year, millions of women are affected by breast cancer. But with timely awareness, early detection, and proper treatment, it can be prevented or successfully managed. This blog is dedicated to helping women understand the risks, symptoms, and steps to take in order to stay healthy and informed.
Breast cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells in the breast grow uncontrollably, forming a lump or tumor. Over time, if not treated, it can spread to other parts of the body. However, if caught early, breast cancer is highly treatable and many women go on to live healthy, cancer-free lives.
Any woman can develop breast cancer, but some factors may increase the risk:
Age – Women over 40 are more likely to be diagnosed
Family History – Having a close relative (mother, sister, aunt) who had breast cancer increases your chances
Genetics – Certain gene mutations (like BRCA1 and BRCA2) are linked to higher risk
Hormonal Factors – Early menstruation or late menopause
Lifestyle Choices – Lack of physical activity, smoking, alcohol consumption, and obesity
Knowing what to look out for is the first step. Some common symptoms include:
A lump or thickening in the breast or underarm
Changes in the size or shape of the breast
Dimpling or puckering of the skin
Nipple discharge, especially if it’s bloody
Pain in a specific area that doesn’t go away
Redness or flakiness of the nipple or breast skin
If you notice any of these changes, don’t ignore them. Visit a doctor immediately.

Early detection saves lives. Here’s what every woman should do:
Self-Examination: Check your breasts monthly for any changes
Clinical Breast Exam: Done by a doctor, especially if you’re over 30
Mammograms: Recommended yearly or as advised after age 40
Regular screenings help catch cancer before symptoms even appear, increasing the chances of successful treatment.
While you can’t control all risk factors, adopting a healthy lifestyle can help reduce the risk:
Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables
Exercise regularly
Maintain a healthy weight
Limit alcohol and avoid smoking
Stay informed and get regular checkups
