"I have three beautiful aunts that are breast cancer survivors and one of my good friends is currently battling breast cancer. Because I have seen so many young women around my age become diagnosed with breast cancer, I have made the decision to start the screening process early. Between 70 - 80% of patients diagnosed with breast cancer had no risk factors or family history of the disease, according to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc. Regular mammogram screening is recommended once a woman reaches their 40's, but earlier if you have a family history of breast cancer or multiple risk factors. While early detection is still key, doctors have also found that exercise and breastfeeding aid in lowering the risk of breast cancer, while alcohol, poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle can raise the risk (National Breast Cancer Foundation).
