A risk factor is anything that increases your chance of developing breast cancer. Some people have one risk factor, while others may have several – but having risk factors doesn’t mean you’ll get breast cancer. It simply means you may benefit from earlier, more frequent or more specialized screening.
Some risk factors for breast cancer include:
Other factors – like your pregnancy and breastfeeding history or exposure to hormones from long-term use of hormone replacement therapy for menopausal symptoms– can also influence your risk.
Our team of experts will help you understand your personal risk profile and guide you in making informed decisions about your breast health.
