Recently, the “2023 Annual Report of Zhejiang Province” was released, and the incidence and mortality of residents in Zhejiang Province was updated.

Data show that the number of new cancers in the registered area of tumor registered in Zhejiang Province was 10,4998 cases, and the incidence of cancer was 48.409/100,000. It is worth noting that female breast cancer ranked second in cancer.

In recent years, breast cancer has become one of the most common cancers in Chinese women, and its incidence cannot be underestimated, but many people still have insufficient understanding of breast cancer.

What is breast cancer?What are the high -risk people?How to check and prevent it?Today, let’s talk about how to deal with this “healthy killer”.

What is breast cancer

Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the mammary gland epithelial (duct or lobular epithelium) tissue.Existing research shows that the evolution of breast cancer is a multi -stage and multi -step process, and there are many risk factors that cause breast cancer. The long -term effects of various factors will lead to mutation, cancer, development and metastasis of breast epithelium cells.

How to screen breast cancer?

Reducing the occurrence of cancer through scientific prevention measures is an important part of tumor prevention.

Early discovery is the best way to improve the results of breast cancer and increase survival.Currently commonly used breast cancer screening methods include clinical breast examination, breast X -ray photography, ultrasound examination and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).Among them, clinical breast examination and ultrasound examination are relatively common in my country.

General risk of female crowd screening:

1. “Chinese breast cancer screening and early diagnostic guidelines” recommend 40 to 69 -year -old general risk female population accepts breast X -ray photography screening. The appropriate frequency of screening is once every 2 years.For women under the age of 40, if there are no obvious high -risk factors such as family history and abnormal discovery, it is not recommended for routine breast X -ray examination.

2. It is recommended to combine breast X -ray photography and ultrasound examination.

3. For female groups with dense breast tissue, it is recommended to combine breast X -ray photography and ultrasound examination to improve the accuracy of diagnosis.

Screening of high -risk people:

High -risk population of breast cancer includes: those with obvious genetic tendencies of breast cancer; patients with mammary ducts or patients with typical hyperplasia or leaflets (LCIS); chest radiotherapy has been received before the age of 30.

1. Recommend <40 years old to carry out breast screening.

2. Once the breast X -ray examination once a year.

3. Milk ultrasound examination and 1 breast physical examination every 6 to 12 months.

4. If necessary, combine the miries enhanced MRI.

How to do breast self -examination?

Breast self -examination can improve women’s awareness of cancer prevention. It is expected that tumors can be found in the early stage. It is recommended that women choose a self -examination 7 to 14 days after menstruation.

01

one look

Standing in front of the mirror, observe whether the breasts are symmetrical, whether the skin color of the breast changes, and the nipples are depressed.

02

Two touches

Lift one hand, remove the remaining four fingers other than your thumb, slide the breast from the inside to the outside, and check whether there are lumps and hardships.

03

Three -pressed

Check the outside of the breast to the armpit and check if there are lumps.

04

Squeeze

Compress the areola to see if there is a nipple overflow.

Elderly women should also pay attention to breast cancer risk

Many middle -aged and elderly women believe that after the siege period, ovarian function degradation, estrogen dropped, and sudden drop in breast cancer.In fact, this is a very dangerous misunderstanding.

What are the characteristics of elderly breast cancer?

● Not easy to detect

This is because more than 90%of elderly breast cancer manifests as breast masses, often without pain and other discomfort, the growth rate is slow, and the elderly are not easy to perceive.The concept of physical examination is even ashamed to talk about breasts too much, so it is often more likely to ignore breast -related diseases.

● Progress is relatively slow

Elderly patients are more prone to estrogen receptor -positive and HER2 -negative Luminal subtype breast cancer. Compared with young breast cancer, tissue levels often use low proliferation and highly divide people. In general, they are biological characteristics.It is better than young breast cancer, and its progress is relatively slow.

● Early diagnosis and early treatment, more important

The elderly often accompanies a variety of diseases, and the tolerance of surgery and various types of anti -tumor treatment is not as good as young people. It is also more likely to have adverse reactions during treatment. It is also likely that recurrence and metastasis due to insufficient treatment.Therefore, in order to strive for better prognosis, early discovery, early diagnosis, and early treatment are even more important.

How to reduce the risk of breast cancer?

1. Avoid obesity.Adhere to aerobic exercise and maintain healthy weight.

2. Healthy diet.Do not smoke, limit or avoid drinking, avoid eating moldy food, do not eat fried, marinated, barbecue foods, eat less processing meat, drink less sugary drinks, drink tea in moderation, and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.

3. Manage emotions.If a person is in a mental state of depression, depression, and nervous for a long time, it will cause the immune function to decrease and eventually affect our health.

4. Reasonable use of sex hormone drugs.Do not use health products and skin care products containing hormones.

5. Avoid radiation.

6. Rule of schedule.
