Breast cancer has been the most common threat of cancer type since the beginning of mankind. Many research and advancements have been made to cure and even prevent it. This article discusses some of the factors affecting breast cancer risks. Note that the factors must be taken into serious consideration at all costs. All women should know of these, in fact.

1. Personal history of the breast

If a woman has developed cancer in one breast in the past or present time, then there is an increase of risk of a new cancer. This new cancer will able to appear in the other breast as well.

2. Exercise

When a person, regardless of gender, exercises, there is often not much problems. The real problems come in when anyone skip their exercise routine or discipline. This is because exercising can decrease the total amount of 'estrogen' a woman is exposed to in her lifetime. Reducing 'estrogen' levels reduces risk of breast cancer.

3. Hormone replacement therapy ('HRT')

Many people have been known to use or even abuse the usage of 'HRT'. While this can be beneficial, a prolonged use will increase breast cancer risk slightly. Regarding future use of 'HRT', it is highly recommended that the female consults her doctor first.

4. Radiation harmful rays

Females who have constant exposure to 'X-rays' or radiation therapy during adolescent age are at a higher risk. If you know you have been through this stage, do consult your doctor today for further advice.

5. Breast biopsy

What is biopsy? A biopsy is a medical test involving the removal of cells or tissues for examination. Especially if the biopsy shows 'atypical hyperplasia' or 'carcinoma-in-situ', these too, will increase risk of having breast cancer years to come.
