A 16-year-old girl felt a hard lump in her breast. The doctor diagnosed her with breast cancer. Doctors pointed out risk factors. They found that patients are getting younger and younger.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, and in recent years, it has been showing signs of decline. Dr. Zheng Yuxu, a surgeon from the Chinese Medical University Hospital, revealed that she once treated a 16-year-old girl who was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Dr. Zheng shared this story, saying that a 16-year-old girl found a hard lump on her breast herself. After further examination, it was found that it was breast cancer. She further explained that the girl had her period early and ate out regularly. The food she consumed was high in fat, sugar, and salt, as well as processed foods. In addition, she faced stress from school, strained family relationships, and did not drink enough water. Which caused her body to develop chronic inflammation, which put her at high risk of breast cancer.
Dr. Zheng emphasized that the เล่นบาคาร่า UFABET เว็บตรง ค่าคอมสูง main risk factors for breast cancer include early menstruation, late menopause, high stress, improper eating habits, never being pregnant, never breastfeeding, a family history of breast cancer, or a history of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometrial cancer.
In addition, the estrogen hormone in a woman’s body is closely related to the risk of breast cancer. The earlier you start menstruating or the later you stop menstruating, the longer the body is exposed to estrogen, and the greater the risk of developing cancer.
According to data from the National Health Department of Taiwan, breast cancer is the most common cancer among Taiwanese women. Compared to European and American countries, the age at which breast cancer is diagnosed tends to be younger in Taiwan, with the highest incidence in the age group being 45-64 years old, with the highest incidence rate in the age group of 45-49 years old at 213 per 100,000 women.
