It is a disease where abnormal cells in the breast tissue start growing out of control. Don't read random things online because every case is totally different. Go to a reputed hospital, consult an oncologist, and ask all your doubts clearly.

I was diagnosed with it last year and just finished my treatment cycle. It starts as abnormal cell growth in the breast, often felt as a lump. Honestly, early detection saved me, so please get a mammogram or ultrasound done if you feel anything unusual.

Hello beta. Breast cancer is simply an uncontrolled growth of breast cells, which can often be cured if caught in time. Don't panic if you or a loved one is facing this; medical science has advanced so much now. Just take it one step at a time and consult a specialist.

It's a type of cancer that develops in the breast tissues. To stay safe without spending a bomb, every woman in the house should learn how to do a simple self-examination at home once a month. It doesn't cost anything and helps catch things early.
