What is meant by strong family history of breast cancer? | Apollo Hospitals

What is meant by strong family history of breast cancer? Watch the insightful session on "Risk Factors & Screening for Breast Cancer" by Dr. Bhawna Sirohi, Lead-Medical Oncologist, Apollo Hospitals. Some people have a higher risk of developing breast cancer than the general population because other members of their family have had particular cancers. This is called a family history of cancer. Having a mother, sister or daughter (first degree relative) diagnosed with breast cancer approximately doubles the risk of breast cancer. This risk is higher when more close relatives have breast cancer, or if a relative developed breast cancer under the age of 50. But most women who have a close relative with breast cancer will never develop it. #Cancer #BreastCancer #CausesOfBreastCancer _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Apollo Hospitals is the leading multi-specialty hospitals group in India.
