Professor Dr. Rezwan Islam spoke about this.
During Adolescence , it can happen to many, if they have ovarian cancer in their family history. They have some genetic mutations. It is also happening in Bangladesh. We used to think that genetic breast cancer only happens in the western world.

Foods that reduce the risk of breast cancer!

Doctors are blaming genetic problems as well as lifestyle as the cause of breast cancer. According to Global Cancer Statistics (Globcan), about 2.1 million women worldwide are diagnosed with breast cancer each year.
Knowing these statistics can instill fear in women naturally. This fear is as unbearable as it is easy to get rid of. However, by following some rules, you can reduce the risk of breast cancer.
According to Indian media Anandabazar, the Ida & Joseph Friend Cancer Center recently conducted a survey of 91,000 women and provided a food list. According to researchers, regular consumption of these foods can prevent breast cancer. According to them, people's eating habits have changed drastically in the last few years. Junk food addiction is on the rise.
Fruits and vegetables are high in vitamin A, fiber and antioxidants. These foods enter the body and destroy a compound called pathogenesis. Basically, this pathogenesis is one of the causes of breast cancer. Because of this, the risk of breast cancer is greatly reduced if it is damaged.
Research shows that eating vegetables, apples, broccoli, carrots, tomatoes, onions, strawberries, etc., reduces the risk of breast cancer. Also, to avoid the risk of breast cancer, you have to say no to smoking. Alcohol and red meat should also be controlled. The amount of night waking should be reduced.
"If caught early, cancer goes away"
Today , we will talk about how to easily detect breast cancer at an early stage.
By regularly examining our own breasts on a certain date every month, we can be alert to any abnormal changes in the breasts, which is called "self-breast examination". How to do this Self Breast Examination ??
Those who have regular menstruation - they can do this test after the end of menstruation or seven days after menstruation.
Those who have irregular or stopped menstruation will do this test on a specific date of the month.
🔯 First of all, stand in front of the mirror and notice if there is any change in the shape of the breast or any change in the skin / whether any wheel or any part of the breast looks thick. Keep the palms of the hands at the waist and press down hard so that the muscles of the chest tighten the muscles and raise both hands to see if there is any change in the breasts.
Second part - lying on the bed with a pillow under the right shoulder and the right arm under the head. All the fingers of the left hand should be examined in small circles by gently pressing the tip together, as well as the right armpit to see if there is any wheel. You have to press the nipple to see if any juice comes out. Similarly the left breast should be examined.
If you think anything suspicious, you should consult a doctor immediately without hiding it.
There are some steps of diagnosis as per the advice of the doctor - in which case confirmation (FNAC / biopsy) is done through ultrasonography / mammography / needle or juice or meat test.
🔎🔎🔎Our country has all the methods of diagnosis and treatment of this disease. There is no need to panic and go abroad for treatment.
The treatment methods available for breast cancer are -surgery
Chemotherapy
Radiotherapy
Hormone therapy
Which treatment method to take depends on the stage of the disease.
If the disease can be detected at a very early stage, only the cancerous part can be removed by surgery and the rest of the breast can be kept normal which is called breast conservative surgery.
But if the disease is advanced, then the whole breast has to be removed with surgery with chemotherapy / radiotherapy. That is why early detection of the disease is very important.
Not to mention one more thing.
🎑🎀 "Prevention is better than cure" We must be careful to resist. This requires our willpower.
*** People who are overweight are four times more likely to have breast cancer than normal. That is why weight should be kept under control. Exercise regularly. You need to develop the habit of walking for 1 hour daily so that the risk is reduced a lot.
*** If someone in your family has breast cancer, your risk of developing the disease can also be determined through your own genetic testing.
*** As well as the habit of eating nutritious food, vegetables, fruits should be developed. Any kind of alcohol consumption should be avoided.
*** Screening must be done after the age of 40.
*** Research has shown that certain foods inhibit the formation of cancer cells (broccoli, pomegranate, blueberry, lemon). Try to keep these on the diet.
So, let's try today. If we all work together to prevent breast cancer, countless lives will be saved from its coral grass, which is our mother, our sister, our daughter.
