Prevention
“How do I prevent breast cancer?”
It’s one of the most common questions we get asked and one we encourage you to keep asking, but with few known causes and several evolving risk factors, the answer is not as precise as we wish it were.
To best answer your question, we say be proactive in knowing, understanding and reducing your breast cancer risk factors wherever possible. You may not have the power to change your history or DNA, but how you live – what you put in and on your body, what you expose yourself to, your level of physical activity and breast awareness – is up to you.
