Ladies, Alcohol Could Hurts your Breast Health!
Breast cancer is second only to lung cancer as the leading cause of cancer death among women in the United States. Breast cancer occurs in men also, but the number of new cases is small. Early detection and effective treatment is expected to reduce the number of women who die from breast cancer, and development of new methods of prevention continue to be studied.
No one knows the exact causes of breast cancer. Doctors can seldom explain why one woman gets breast cancer and another does not. However, research has shown that women with certain risk factors are more likely than others to develop breast cancer.
Anything that increases a person’s chance of developing a disease is called a risk factor; anything that decreases a person’s chance of developing a disease is called a protective factor. Some of the risk factors for breast cancer can be avoided, but many cannot.
Some studies suggest that the more alcoholic beverages a woman drinks, the greater her risk of breast cancer.
So if you an alcoholic, there is a higher risk of breast cancer.
The equivalent of a glass of wine after work – this is a relatively safe level to drink. However even low levels of alcohol intake have been linked to breast cancer.
Besides cutting down on alcohol, being physically active is important, as it further reduces risk of breast cancer.
Women who are physically inactive throughout life appear to have an increased risk of breast cancer. Being physically active may help to reduce risk by preventing weight gain and obesity.
It is especially important to remain physically active after menopause. The chance of getting breast cancer goes up as a woman gets older. A woman over age 60 is at greatest risk. This disease is very uncommon before menopause. High levels of estrogen may be the reason that obese women have an increased risk of breast cancer. And some studies show that gaining weight after menopause increases the risk of breast cancer.
Lack of physical activity is an important contributor to many of the most important chronic diseases for older Americans, including heart disease, diabetes, colon cancer, and high blood pressure. Lack of physical activity, along with poor nutrition, is a major contributor to the growing epidemic of obesity in the United States.
Start to be physically active today, and always be in the pink of health as you age!

It hurts when i touch the side of my left breast. I always thought that a syst due to cancer was not painful.
When i touch the side of my left breast it hurts, i can;t rub up against it at all. I think i feel a bump but an not sure if it could be muscle tissue. But when i press, it is sensitive I always thought a syst is not painful. I have an appointment to see the doctor. Sometimes this breast feels like it is being poked with a pin, like a burning feeling.

Lump under left arm that hurts when I move it around. could it be Breast Cancer?
Hi everyone… it’s been awhile since I’ve been on here, but I would like some help with a question.
PLEASE only answer if you’ve experienced or have facts.
Last night I did a check as I always do and found this lump under my left arm. It’s not that big about the size of a jellybean or small grape, but I know size doesn’t matter either. It hurts when I move it around. Now I’ve called my Dr and have an apt this afternoon, but I want to hear from those who’ve had personal experience with something like this.
Scariest thing for me……. My mom passed of Breast Cancer almost 6 yrs ago. Guess where she found her lump…..
