Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting women. It's important to understand your breast cancer risk so that you can start screening at the appropriate time, check your genetics, and reduce your modifiable risk factors. 

We know that increasing exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding alcohol and cigarettes reduces breast cancer risk. Taking a personal inventory of your current life style and how to improve your health can not only improve your sense of wellbeing today but can also reduce your risk of breast cancer.
