Having a risk factor, or even several, doesn’t mean that a woman will get breast cancer.
1.Gender: Being a woman is the main risk for breast cancer
2.Age: The chance of getting breast cancer goes up as a woman gets older
3.Family history: Breast cancer risk is higher among women whose close blood relatives have this disease.
4.Race: White women are slightly more likely to get breast cancer than African-American women.
5.Dense breast tissue:Women with denser breast tissue have a higher risk of breast cancer.
6.Breast radiation early in life: Women who have had radiation treatment to the chest area (as treatment for another cancer) earlier in life have a greatly increased risk of breast cancer.

Has there been any studies to suggest that fast food can increase your risk of Cancer and other serious medical problems?  I eat fast food 4 or 5 days a week, and am really worried it is going to make me unhealthy in a few years.  If there is a link between poor diets and Cancer, is there a way to reverse the damage I have done to my body?

Hi,
Thanks for this information ..Really very helpful…

A risk factor is anything that affects your chance of getting a disease, such as cancer. Different cancers have different risk factors. For example, exposing skin to strong sunlight is a risk factor for skin cancer. Smoking is a risk factor for cancers of the lung, mouth, larynx (voice box), bladder, kidney, and several other organs.

But risk factors don’t tell us everything. Having a risk factor, or even several, does not mean that you will get the disease. Most women who have one or more breast cancer risk factors never develop the disease, while many women with breast cancer have no apparent risk factors (other than being a woman and growing older). Even when a woman with risk factors develops breast cancer, it is hard to know just how much these factors may have contributed to her cancer.

There are different kinds of risk factors. Some factors, like a person’s age or race, can’t be changed. Others are linked to cancer-causing factors in the environment. Still others are related personal behaviors, such as smoking, drinking, and diet. Some factors influence risk more than others, and your risk for breast cancer can change over time, due to factors such as aging or lifestyle.

thanks

If a patients are having the risk factors for the cancer it doesn’t means that there is a guarantee that a person will get infected with cancer. Risk Factors indicate the chances of getting infected with cancer.
