What is Breast Cancer?

Breast cancer is a condition in which breast cells start growing uncontrollably and take the form of tumors. If not treated in time, this cancer can also spread to other parts of the body (such as lungs, bones, liver).

Types of Breast Cancer

  • Ductal carcinoma: This is the most common type and develops in the ducts that carry milk.
  • Lobular carcinoma: It occurs in the milk-producing glands (lobules).
  • Invasive breast cancer: A cancer that can spread to nearby cells and organs.
  • Non-invasive: Early-stage cancer, which is limited to the ducts only.

Causes of Breast Cancer

Breast cancer can be caused by several factors. Some of these reasons are in our control and some are not.

Key reasons:

  • Genetic: If there are already breast cancer patients in the family, then the risk is high.
  • Hormonal imbalances: Prolonged hormonal changes or use of contraceptive drugs.
  • Lifestyle: Smoking, alcohol consumption, unbalanced diet and obesity.
  • Fertility Reasons: Late marriage, late having or not having a child.
  • Age: The risk increases with age, especially after age 40.

Other diseases: Hormonal disorders or a history of other cancers.

Symptoms of Breast Cancer

Breast cancer can be difficult to recognize in the early stages, but there are some common symptoms that should not be ignored.

Early symptoms

  • Lump or swelling in the breast
  • Changes in breast size or shape
  • Abnormal discharge from the nipple
  • Redness or roughness on the skin
  • Advance symptoms Breast pain or heaviness Swelling in the armpit Spread of cancer to other parts of the body (pain in the bones or lungs)
