BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer for South Africans, with 1 in 27 having a lifetime risk. The risk for breast cancer increases as a person gets older, but many women under 40 have been diagnosed with breast cancer.

HOW TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BREAST CANCER • • • • • •

The risk factors that can be managed or influenced are: Not being physically active, this presents a higher risk of getting breast cancer.

Being overweight or obese after menapause. Older women who are overweight or obese have a higher risk of getting breast cancer that those of a healthy weight.

Taking hormones. Some forms of hormone replacement therapy (including oestrogen and progesterone) taken during menopause can raise risk for breast cancer when taken for more than five years.

Certain oral contraceptives have also been found to raise the risk of breast cancer.

Reproductive history. A first pregnancy after age 30, not breastfeeding, and never having full term pregnancy can raise breast cance risk.

Drinking alcohal. Studies show that the risk of breast cancer increases with the more alcohal you drink.

WARNING SIGNS OF BREAST CANCER • • • •

New lump in the breast or underarm (armpit) or thickening or swelling of part of the breast.

Irritation or dimpling of breast skin or redness, flaky skin in the nipple area of the breast.

Pulling in of the nipple or pin in the nipple area or nipple discharge other than breast milk, including blood.

Any change in the size or the shape of the breast or pain in any area of the breast.

MAMMOGRAMS According to Breastcancer.org, detecting breast cancer early greatly improves the chances of a positive prognosis.

Women should have a mammogram from the age of 40 or sooner if in a high risk group. Women in the age group 45-54 should have a mammogram every year, while those over 55 should have a mammogram every two years, or earlier if advised by their GP. While self-examining your breast every month is essential, this does not replace the need for a mammogram which can detect cancer before symptoms are experienced.
