can you please tell me systems of breast cancer?

Answer 1

FIRST PLEASE SPELL CHECK-

CAUSES AND SYMPTOMS OF BREAST CANCER-

There are a number of risk factors for the development of breast cancer, including:

family history of breast cancer in mother or sister
early onset of menstruation and late menopause
reproductive history: women who had no children or have children after age 30 and women who have never breastfed have increased risk
history of abnormal breast biopsies
Though these are recognized risk factors, it is important to note that more than 70% of women who get breast cancer have no known risk factors. Having several risk factors may boost a woman's chances of developing breast cancer, but the interplay of predisposing factors is complex. In addition to those accepted factors listed above, some studies suggest that high-fat diets, obesity, or the use of alcohol may contribute to the risk profile. Another factor that may contribute to a woman's risk profile is hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

HRT provides significant relief of menopausal symptoms, prevention of osteoporosis, and possibly protection from cardiovascular disease and stroke. However, studies show that there is a small increased risk of developing breast cancer with HRT use. Thus, the use of hormone replacement therapy should be based on personal risk factors.

Of all the risk factors listed above, family history is the most important. In The Biological Basis of Cancer, the authors estimate that probably about half of all familial breast cancer cases (families in which there is a high breast cancer frequency) have mutations affecting the tumor suppressor gene BRCA-1. Another gene (BRCA-2) also appears to confer inherited vulnerability to early-onset breast cancers. However, breast cancer due to heredity is only a small proportion of breast cancer cases; only 5%–10% of all breast cancer cases will be women who inherited a susceptibility through their genes. Nevertheless, when the family history is strong for development of breast cancer, a woman's risk is increased.

Not all lumps detected in the breast are cancerous. Fibrocystic changes in the breast are extremely common. Also known as fibrocystic condition of the breast, fibrocystic changes are a leading cause of non-cancerous lumps in the breast. Fibrocystic changes also cause symptoms of pain, swelling, or discharge and may become evident to the patient or physician as a lump that is either solid or filled with fluid. Complete diagnostic evaluation of any significant breast abnormality is mandatory because though women commonly develop fibrocystic changes, breast cancer is common also, and the signs and symptoms of fibrocystic changes overlap with those of breast cancer.-

Answer 2

Early breast cancer usually does not cause pain. In fact, when breast cancer first develops, there may be no symptoms at all. But as the cancer grows, it can cause changes that women should watch for:


A lump or thickening in or near the breast or in the underarm area.
A change in the size or shape of the breast.
A discharge from the nipple.
A change in the color or feel of the skin of the breast, areola, or nipple (dimpled, puckered, or scaly).
A woman should see her doctor if she notices any of these changes. Most often, they are not cancer, but only a doctor can tell for sure

Answer 3

(if you mean symptoms by saying 'systems')

normally there are none for breast cancer. but possible symptoms include breast discharge, nipple inversion and changes in the skin overlying the breast. but if you do not see these symptoms that does not mean that you do not have breast cancer.. like i said there are no 'fixed' symptoms for breast cancer.

getting a screening test (mammogram) is always the best. or one could check for any gland/lumps in their breast. if the gland/lump does not move and/or feels solid (non-cancerous lumps feels liquid.. like there is pus in it), it could be cancerous.

Answer 4

Most of the time there are none. In some cases there is an abnormal nipple discharge, sudden nipple inversion, or an obvious red inflamed breast. Other than those the cancer is found by self examination or by mammography.

Answer 5

This subject is one element I surely consistently view heavily. I even have commonplace countless women folk in that final two decades that have been saved with the aid of our super equipment of drugs. additionally i comprehend that different ailments that touch us have lots worse care interior the supposedly super well being care platforms in Europe. Why might others come here for treatment if their equipment is greater, you do not hear to lots of human beings desirous to flock to England or France for well being care. no remember what the Michael Moores, Hillary or Edwards say it incredibly is an argument i comprehend something approximately and have a staked activity in - my mom died of breast maximum cancers in 1960 whilst i became 2 a million/2 as a results of HER waiting to long to circulate to the surgeon.
