What’s the biggest risk factor for developing breast cancer? Breast Surgical Oncologist at Dr. Lauren DeStefano, answers this important question and explains why staying proactive with annual screening mammograms matters.
While family history can increase risk, most people diagnosed with breast cancer have no known family history. In fact, about 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will develop breast cancer in their lifetime.
That’s why annual screening mammograms are so important. Mammograms can help detect breast cancer early, often before symptoms even begin. Visit the link in our bio for more information.
