Mammograms are performed today for two reasons: they help detect breast cancer and also help confirm a diagnosis if another screening option shows the presence of cancerous cells. Mammograms might be able to help screen for breast cancer in some cases, but they do nothing to help prevent or treat br....
The risk is so low that it is impossible to read using tables of published health data and statistics. Children do get cancer, but very rarely breast cancer.

Good news! The short answer is a resounding no. Cow milk’s relationship with breast cancer has been studied extensively over the past 25 years, and while the details of the studies don’t always agree, most of the studies agree on the basics: that dairy is not associated with an increased risk for br....

Breast cancer can be diagnosed at different stages and can grow at different rates. This means people can have different treatments, depending on what will work best for them.
To determine if your symptoms are caused by breast cancer or a benign breast condition, your doctor will do a thorough physical exam in addition to a breast exam. They may also request one or more diagnostic tests to help understand what’s causing your symptoms.
If your doctor suspects breast cancer, he/she may order both a mammogram and an ultrasound. If both of these tests can’t tell your doctor if you have cancer, your doctor may do a test called a breast biopsy.
Your breast cancer’s stage, how far it has invaded (if it has), and how big the tumour has grown all play a large part in determining what kind of treatment you’ll need. Keep in mind that cancer treatments continue to improve, as do outcomes. So follow your treatment plan and try to stay positive.
