[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ladies - don’t have kids so late in life. Studies show there is a very strong link to breast cancer. RIP Kelly[/quote]

Disbelieving. How could there be a link?[/quote]

I don't think the link is age per se. The problem is to have a kid that late in life, you probably have to undergo a lot of medical intervention.[/quote]

It actually is both: age and hormones.

Pregnancy gives your body a break for 10 months (plus breastfeeding). Google it.

[b]The articles also indicate that ivf treatment includes a mammogram (presumably because of the link), so cancer is often detected earlier.[/b] [/quote]
Patients are required to have a recent (no more than either 6 or 12 months ago) mammogram prior to starting an IVF cycle, because any breast cancer already present would be fed by the fertility drugs used, as well as the extra estrogen during pregnancy, should the patient successfully conceive, and treating the patient’s cancer during pregnancy would be harmful to the fetus. Although IVF may increase the odds of developing breast cancer, the required mammogram is to make sure there is no breast cancer prior to starting IVF, not to see if IVF caused breast cancer.[/quote]
