Worldwide the month of October is observed as the Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and the most common cause of cancer death in women worldwide. In United States of America, it is estimated that in 2018 there were 21 million diagnoses of all types of cancers in men and women, out of which 23.8% (2.34 million) female patients were diagnosed with invasive breast cancer alone.
Adequate awareness about breast cancer and its preventive measures can help us take necessary steps for avoiding this disease and seeking timely, appropriate help to minimize harms in case of an actual disease.
