Comprehensive, personalized care with advanced treatments for early detection, recovery, and long-term well-being.
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide. It occurs when abnormal cells in the breast tissue grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor that may spread to other parts of the body if not detected early.
Types of Breast Cancer
✔ Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS) – A non-invasive cancer where abnormal cells are confined to the milk ducts. ✔ Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (IDC) – The most common type, spreading beyond the milk ducts into breast tissue. ✔ Invasive Lobular Carcinoma (ILC) – Starts in the milk-producing lobules and can spread. ✔ Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) – A more aggressive type that lacks hormone receptors, making it harder to treat. ✔ HER2-Positive Breast Cancer – A fast-growing cancer that overproduces the HER2 protein. ✔ Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) – A rare but aggressive form causing swelling and redness.
Symptoms of Breast Cancer
Lump or thickening in the breast or underarm
Changes in breast size, shape, or appearance
Nipple discharge (other than breast milk), especially blood
Dimpling or puckering of the skin (like an orange peel)
Pain in the breast or nipple area
Redness, swelling, or warmth in the breast
Diagnosis & Treatment
Early detection through mammograms, ultrasounds, MRIs, and biopsies significantly improves treatment success. Depending on the stage and type, treatments include:
Surgery – Includes lumpectomy (tumor removal) or mastectomy (breast removal).
Radiation Therapy – Helps destroy remaining cancer cells post-surgery.
Chemotherapy – Used for aggressive or advanced-stage cancers.
Hormone Therapy – Blocks hormones like estrogen and progesterone to slow cancer growth.
Targeted Therapy – Specifically attacks cancer cells with minimal damage to healthy cells.
Immunotherapy – Helps the immune system fight cancer more effectively.
Benefits of Early Detection & Advanced Treatment
✔ Higher Survival Rates – Early-stage breast cancer has a 95% survival rate with timely treatment. ✔ Minimally Invasive Surgeries – Modern techniques ensure breast-conserving options. ✔ Personalized Treatment Plans – Tailored therapies improve outcomes and reduce side effects. ✔ Better Quality of Life – Supportive care, including reconstructive surgery and counseling, enhances post-treatment recovery.
Regular self-examinations, clinical screenings, and mammograms are essential for early detection and better treatment outcomes. Breast cancer awareness and proactive care empower women to take charge of their health.
