A lot of guys think the larger a woman's breasts are, the less intelligent she is.
I don't think it works like that. I think it's the opposite.
I think the larger a woman's breasts are, the less intelligent the men become.
(Anita Wise)

You start out happy that you have no hips or boobs.
All of a sudden you get them, and it feels sloppy.
Then just when you start liking them, they start drooping.

What every woman must know about breast issues.

Breast issues are among more common reasons women seek medical
attention: breast development, breast pain, breast exam, mammography,
lactation, breast  enlargement, breast biopsy, mastitis, breast cancer ,
breast cyst and much more.

 It is estimated that one out of ten women have benign (non-cancerous) breast condition.

The risk factors for developing breast cancer are: obesity, long time use of hormone therapy, having close relatives with breast cancer, age (incidence of breast cancer increases with age) exposure to radiation and  history of benign breast disease.

Statistic: - a breast cancer diagnosis is made every 45 minutes
                - four out of five of those will survive.

Can you prevent breast cancer?
There is still no known  absolute measures to prevent breast cancer. But
doing these things can improve your chances in not getting it:  losing
weight if you are overweight , maintaining healthy life-style (diets, exercise), having regular screening and breast examination and taking powerful antioxidants. Research showed that taking these measures reduces the risk of developing breast cancer by 40%.

     right hand for the left breast.

A faulty gene could be a cause of breast cancer. How to find out if you have it?

One of the risk factors to develop breast cancer in your life time is having a family history of breast cancer which could be caused by a faulty gene.

If you have a family history of breast cancer it does not necessarily mean you have this faulty gene.

There is a special test to determine if you or you other family members have the gene. The test involves a simple blood test only.

Who is most at risk?
- Women who have one or two close relative on either side of the family with breast or ovarian cancer.
- Women who have relatives diagnosed with breast cancer  under the age of 50.

How the test is done?
First of all, the test must be performed on a woman in your family who falls into the high risk group (see above). If the faulty gene is found in her then other family members should be tested for it.

Knowing that you have this gene may change your attitude towards cancer. You may prefer to undergo psychological canceling before you tell your family about the result of your genetic testing. If you have children under 18, think about when might be a good time to tell them.

What options available for healthy women who have the potentially cancer-causing faulty gene?
- Regular check ups with a medical profession.
- Regular mammography.
In very small number of cases, women may go for removal of both healthy breast. Sometimes, removal of both ovaries may significantly decrease the risk of developing breast cancer. You should discuss the options with health care provider.
If you are considering genetic testing talk to your family doctor.

Beating Cancer with Nutritional Supplements

Many doctors naturopaths believe that some specific nutrients have the ability to slow the progression of breast cancer. Of course, you should use these supplements only with the approval and supervision of your doctor.
Here are what you can use:

CLA - Conjugated linoleic acid is a component of fat that is found abundantly in animals. Scientist theorize that CLA is part of a receptor on the surface of cells that tells the immune system if the cell is normal cell or a cancer cell. If that receptor short of CLA , the cancer cell can't be recognized - and is not destroyed.

GENISTEIN - found in soy products such as tofu.  Research shows that genistein can help kill cancer cells  and stop a tumor's growth. Some doctors say that soy supplement contain phytoestrogens,  and cant' be taken by women with breast cancer. But research after research showed that phytoestrogens don't increase the risk of breast cancer or accelerate the disease.

COENZYME Q 10 - helps generate the cellular energy that makes your body work. In young people , the body produces coenzyme Q 10 naturally, but aging and illness can cause a shortage of this element which results in increase of tumor growth.

What about wearing bras?

Wearing tight bras night contribute to the development of breast cancer as a result of cutting off lymphatic drainage so that toxic chemicals are trapped in the breast.

It is recommended for women to avoid bras with under wires and other stiff components and very tight bras.

Select your bra the right size and feel comfortable.
