Breast cancer is increasingly becoming a major threat to women ‘ s health globally. It not only affects the physical well-being of patients, but also has a tremendous impact on their psychological and life. We have provided an overview of the causes, symptoms, diagnostic methods, treatments and preventive measures for breast cancer in order to increase awareness and prevention among female friends.
The occurrence of breast cancer is a complex process, caused by a combination of factors. First, genetic factors play an important role in the incidence of breast cancer. The risk of breast cancer among other family members increases if the next of kin has breast cancer, especially at a younger age. Second, changes in hormone levels are also a key factor. Female estrogens and pregnancy hormones regulate the growth and differentiation of breast cells, and chronic hormone imbalances may increase the risk of cancer. For example, premature menstruation, late menstruation, unbirth or late childbirth, and non-feeding may lead to increased hormonal exposure. In addition, lifestyle factors such as long-term smoking, alcohol abuse, high-heat fat diets, lack of exercise and chronic mental stress may affect the endocrine balance of the body and the functioning of the immune system, thereby increasing the incidence of breast cancer. Environmental factors, such as exposure to radiation, chemical contamination, may also cause damage to breast cells and induce cancer.
Breast cancer may not have visible symptoms at an early stage, but as the condition evolves, some anomalies occur. Common symptoms include mammograms, which are usually hard in form, irregular on the edge and infrequently active; changes in the skin of the breast, such as diarrhea, orange-skin changes; graft fluids, which may be haemogenic, slurry or suspense; retrenchment or lifting of the nipple; and swelling of the lymph in the armpit. It is important to note that these symptoms are not specific to breast cancer and that other breast diseases may exhibit similar manifestations. Therefore, if any breast abnormalities are detected, timely medical treatment, detailed examinations and diagnosis should be carried out. The first method of diagnosis of breast cancer is clinical breast screening, where doctors make a preliminary assessment of the appearance, form, size, location, physiology, etc. of the breast. The second is breast ultrasound, which clearly shows the structure of the breast tissue and helps to determine the nature, size, location and if there is a lymphoma transfer in the armpit. Mammoth X-line screening is also a common method and has a high sensitivity to the detection of small calcified stoves and early breast cancer. For suspected cases, there may also be a need for MRI screening, a biopsy, etc., to determine the type, classification and stagening of the tumor and to provide a basis for the development of treatment programmes.
IV. The treatment of breast cancer, once diagnosed, is based on a combination of the tumours and the physical condition of the patient. Common treatment methods include surgical treatment, chemotherapy, decomposition, endocrine treatment and target-oriented treatment. Surgery is one of the main means of treatment for breast cancer, including breast cancer root surgery and breast-puffing. chemotherapy inhibits the growth and spread of tumours by using chemical drugs to kill cancer cells. Treatment uses radiation to kill cancer cells and reduce the risk of local recurrence. Endocrine treatment applies to hormonal receptor-positive breast cancer patients and prevents the growth of cancer cells by inhibiting hormones. Target-to-target treatments are precise for target points specific to tumour cells and have the advantage of being effective and having small side effects. V. Prevention of breast cancer, although the causes of the incidence of breast cancer are not yet clear, we can take some measures to reduce the risk of morbidity. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is the basis for preventing breast cancer, including a balanced diet, adequate exercise, abdication of alcohol and weight control. Periodic breast self-inspection and clinical examinations help to detect pathologies at an early stage. In the case of high-risk groups, such as breast cancer patients in the family and the carrying of breast cancer-prone genes, early screening should be carried out and appropriate preventive measures, such as preventive medication, preventive surgery and so forth, should be taken under the direction of a doctor.
Breast cancer is a serious health threat to women, but as medical technology continues to improve, early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve the survival and quality of life of patients. Female friends in general should raise awareness of breast cancer, care for their health and actively take preventive measures to achieve early detection, diagnosis and treatment. Let’s work together to fight breast cancer and protect women’s health!
In short, breast cancer, while terrible, is not insurmountable. By raising awareness of breast cancer and adopting scientifically effective preventive and curative measures, we are better able to protect ourselves and our female friends from the threat of the disease. Let’s act together and build a blue sky for a healthy future for women!
