[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Breast cancer in younger women is on the rise, insurance will cover it yearly so that’s what I would recommend, as someone whose breast cancer was detected at an early stage on a mammogram. [/quote] Same. A mammogram caught my breast cancer at 43. Surgery, radiation, and tamoxifen. No chemo because it was caught early. Get your mammograms![/quote] Also, I was not high risk prior to getting diagnosed. I am BRCA and other gene mutation negative. No real family history. My biggest risk factor was dense breasts, which is extremely common. And being a woman. [/quote] Most women who are diagnosed with breast cancer don’t have a family history of breast cancer. No one is immune. Mammography saves lives. [/quote]
